So tonight I returned to one of my favorite photo spots to take more flower pictures! I can tell you are all trembling with excitement.

I took along my K-01 with my Helios 44-M-4 which I ended up using exclusively this evening. I just can't get enough of that lens for flower pictures. The rendering and bokeh are absolutely fabulous, IMHO.

Here are a few of my favorites:



















Cheers!
These are all quite lovely! I also like to use my 44-2 Helios lens for flower shots as well.

Nice David, I love the Helios for the swirly bokeh and colour rendering. It's a perfect fit with the k-01.

I especially like the rendering and bokeh in the first flower photo.

A few pics taken with my K01.
The flower pics are with the FA77.
The Blue Dasher is a heavy crop from a DA55-300.
Thanks for looking!

I went to the FINA World Swimming Cup the last two days. Made some wonderfull images off the swimmers, making some new world records.

Also made a nice candid off the girls who assisted at the medal ceremonie and carried the medals and flowers. This image I saw on wednesday, but I was at the otherside off the pool. So on thursday I took my chance to create this. Offcourse it is de daily news image slideshow.

Great capture!

Here are a few more macro shots. BTW, I measured and my M 50mm F/4 macro with a 20mm extension tube can fit a 26mm-wide image at closest focus. Given that the K-01's sensor is 23.7mm wide, that's a 1:1.1 macro combo. Not bad.

Long time since I posted anything here but I'm just too happy with this shot of a Crane fly not to share it.

The gear used:
Pentax K-01 (obviously)
Pentax Super Takumar 50mm F1.4 (Reversed)
Pentax AF280T flash
Cactus V5 (for better flash angle but also too have something to be mad about since they only fire like 1/10 of the time)

Your second image is very nice, Rondec.

Did you shoot it in HDR?

Thanks. No, it is a single image, edited with Nik Color Effects software.
