The first shot is from a Canon EF 50mm macro lens, 1:2.5. The second is from an old Pentax-M 50mm prime, 1:1.4 (using an adaptor for my Canon body). Both are at maximum aperture, focused as tightly as possible, ISO 3200.

May have to get one of these macro lenses…. thanks for the loaner D!

Blooming tea:

I don’t know why there are two Batman logos on this adaptor, but I don’t care. I kinda like them. More importantly, it works great. PK-EOS indeed.

Pentax K-1000; I may have mentioned it here once or twice before. This shot is not from that camera, but it is through one of my old Pentax K-mount lenses. The old PK 50mm 1.7 lens, soon to be replaced by the PK 50mm 1.4. And I couldn’t be happier to playing with bokeh again. How’s it done? PK-EOS adaptor for my Canon DSLR. happy.

After the broth

I always feel like Fall sneaks in the back door, just as I least expect the chill mornings; just as my golf game is really coming into full swing; just as I’m appreciating the warm weather – so short here in Michigan. As the days grow shorter and the shadows longer, I happened to notice sunning tomatoes against the back door this afternoon. Maybe… maybe I’ll get a few more tomatoes off those hanging bags. Here’s to warmer days.
