Cool shot with the can, Mike! Already caught my attention on PPG. I keep wondering how you did that...
thanks. it was an unintentional thing really. i was using tin snips to cut the bottoms off cans to use the little discs for ant poison and when i studied the pile of bottomless cans, i worked out this comp in my head. i taped the can to a tripod and had my wife kneel in front while i poured a bit of Diet Dr Pepper in and snapped it with some ring-reflector and the 28mm. added the vignette in photoshop, otherwise the top two corners would show my wife's eyes. she was aggravated at how many takes i had to shoot but a very good sport.

I will soon join this club, when I receive my bajonet C/Y-PK from Leitax. I am so looking forward to convert my Contax 28/2,8.

great club idea. my only 28 (currently anyway) is the M28 f3.5 which is one of my favourite lenses (funnily enough I didn't like 28 that much on film preferring 21-24)

a couple of old ones form last Single in January
