Others on this forum helped me pick this as one of my best of 2016. I really need to shoot more often with the Helios.

Thanks guys. I suppose I really should make an effort to shoot with this lens more often.

Like to have seen colour version to compare...very nice in B+W though.

Like the sway and the angle of the subject...very much in keeping with the sway and the angles of the bokeh background. B+W was the right choice IMO, it provides a nice monochromatic effect.
