Erieau. Sorry for the delay responding. Love your pics by the way.

Hey, no problem. I thought it was different place. Never been there (Erieau) and thanks for accolades. Was planing to get to Pelee Island in August maybe but still I might go somewhere else (Portland, Maine and Mt. Washington, NH). If I go to Pelee Island I might stop there too on my way down or up.

Taken with a Super-Takumar 85/1.9. I'm a big fan of the bokeh the Super-Takumar 55/1.8 produces, but it's big cousin - the 85/1.9 - is perhaps even better.

Taken with SMC Tak 50mm Macro. I will never never never get tired of using this lens!

Another Macro Tak shot. What a lens. So sharp, even from F4:

Taken with my trusty Super-Multi-Coated Marco Takumar 50mm Macro. Found a fern leaf under some favorable light...

Nicely done, and it is a nice lens.

Excellent series, JosQ.

All very appealing images.

I, also have a Tak 105 2.8.

You're inspiring me to take it out more often.

Same here - great stuff and a strong reminder to use a short tele for people pix. I have a number of the better Taks: 105/2.8, 135/3.5, 200/4, 28/3.5, both macros, etc. I have a photo opp to shoot a local troupe doing two Shakespeare plays concurrently for 4 weeks - great opp to shoot/reshoot with a variety of lenses, video, etc. Will post some results as they come in...

Sometimes the tak is like a paintbrush...

Really wonderful performance from that lens. You have to print that one....maybe use one of the specialty papers. That one is worth hanging on a wall somewhere.
