There is a lot for me to learn from your recent photo's Lerolls. This one is excellent in it's use of background. Really well done. The shaft of light allows a great ' hi key' background while the darker sides allow a natural vignette. Truly excellent
Thank you kindly. This is why I love to shoot at interesting locations. You never know what cool backgrounds you will find.

Got to shoot with the lovely Theresa this morning. Hope to shoot with her again soon.

Flowers from our garden

Here is a clematis taken with K-3 and FA 77. Reviewing the backlog of flower photos from this past summer, I notice that the best ones were taken with either the FA77 or my Canon-FL 55 mm f 1.2 (permanently converted to K mount). The FA77 photos are best, and possess a dreamy painterly look, while the Canon lens produces knife sharp photos with excellent blurred backgrounds, generally not quite as nice as the 77.

The light was really bad - bright and sunny when I set out - for half a block. The it got raw and cold so I turned around.

The 31mm has a look that is distinct and wonderful. Great shots.
