Thematic Post your Prime Portraits

ekim89 · 04-10-2012, 11:57 AM

It's been a long time since I have posted here...I need to get back to taking portraits...Anyways, here is a shot from my first ever roll of film, nothing special image-wise. My friends playing a piano at a bar in Milwaukee. Shot with an ME Super and M50mm f1.7

Lots of good portraits here. I reeeally should be working right now, so if course I decided to go through this whole thread, LOL. Here are a few to add to it:

K-5 with the Zeiss 35/2:

K-5 with the FA77:

K-5 with the DFA WR 100/2.8 Macro:

LX with Super Tak 50/1.4, on Ilford HP5 Plus:

Thanks! He's definitely a cool guy: recently loaned me his LX.

Great shot, Javier! Have looked at that one more than once in your Flickr stream.

Simon, that's an excellent result. Cleverly set up. Well done.

One from a recent coastal trip, from the stellar DA L 35 f/2.4:
