Some Shots with Takumar 55mm f1.8

Due to work schedule, had not touch my K5iis and Takumar Lens for months. Finally, has a family outing last fine Sunday to a floria exhibition. Beside the flowers, there were two guys doing doll photography. Manage to steal some shots of the doll model.

These shots are taken with Takumar 55mm f1.8












Just a sharing, these two shots are taken with Hanimex tele-lens 135mm f3.5. I am lucky to have a sharp copy, I find that it is comparable with Tak in terms of sharpness. But Tak has a more pleasant bokeh to me. Too bad I did not carry my Takumar 135mm f3.5 that day for a good comparison.

My friend being all contemplative. The white vignetting to the left of the frame is created using some clingwrap.

I regret having to say that there is a string possibility all my photos will be disappearing from Pentax Forums in the near future, as I am one of the many people so ticked off by the Flickr revamp that I will almost certainly be migrating to a different service and deleting my Flickr account.

Everything.

This isn't the place to get into it. I just wanted to explain why all my stuff may disappear from this thread, which where I post the most.

That's a crying shame Mike, I am not that happy with the flickr revamp myself either, I might still use it for image hosting, but I will not renew my flickr pro account when it expires.

Transferring everything to a brand new SmugMug account as I write this. I wish I had the time and the ability to sit down and go back through 700+ pages of this thread and edit in new photo URLs, but I don't.

I spent a lot of time and put in a lot of effort to build up my Flickr account and make the photos easy to find....especially Takumar shots, which get quite a bit of traffic from people looking for representative images....and get a steady 700 ~ 1,200 hits per day, with a total of 1.6 million views so far. Now Flickr has it in mind to use my content and the work I put into making it search engine friendly and use it to host their advertisements, while sharing none of the revenue with the content providers. Instead they'd like to charge me double not to have to look at ad banners myself and have turned the layout into something I find appalling. Huge amounts of angered backlash from people on Flickr and so far not a single word from Flickr in response.

Has Yahoo ever bought out anything they didn't subsequently screw up?
