A set I did at the gates of an abandoned property in Segovia with the Vivitar 28mm f/2. I really like the way the pale blue colour of the gates comes out, especially when contrasted with the rust.

Vivitar series 1 70-210mm komine

I already have ne of these but couldn't resist a bid - and I was the only bidder.



A good lens for flower pics, with close focus to 1:2.5. Just hand held. note I just left the focal length set on 120mm on camera, but most shots were in fact fairly middle of focal range.

More flower pics, this time with the vivitar 55mm f2.8 macro. Very god lens!

Taken while strolling around Bodnant Gardens. Bright sun isn't the best for flower pics IME, but I looked for blooms highlighted by some dappled sunbeams filtering through. #3 is at 1:1 macro, just a few mm across.

I never posted any photos in this forum so, if I infringed a rule, do not hesitate to tell me.

I recently bought a Vivitar 90-180mm F4.5 Flat Field, it is a superb lens:
