Downtown a few days ago on a morning that became sunny after a brief rain. Plenty of rental bikes, and I like the patterned look they presented.
All images were created with my Sony a7ii body, and an old Soviet-era Jupiter 8 50mm lens, mounted via an adapter.
The other day I went out to Riverdale Farm with two more old former Soviet Union lenses that have been sitting on the shelf for ages: my 50mm f/2 Jupiter 8 and 50mm f/3.5 Industar 22. Both delivered better results than I expected!
I was downtown here in Toronto yesterday for the Classic Camera Revival Podcast 10 year anniversary photo walk. I was shooting again with my vintage Soviet-era Industar 61 L/D 55mm f/2.8 lens. I love how this lens is very sharp, but still renders in a pleasing way. This scene of reflections caught my eye.
My eyes aren’t getting any younger, and I am starting to use auto focus lenses more frequently. This morning I was out with my new Ziltrox 20mm f/2.8 FE lens. Pretty good bang for the buck, I’d say!
Images taken with my Sony a7ii body.
Yesterday morning I was out with friends in the WIlliamson Park Ravine in the eastern part of Toronto. The tree canopy is quite dense here, but sunlight will poke through the shadows creating an almost spotlight effect. All images taken with my Sony a7ii body and an old Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 lens.
More images from my recent Bon Echo trip, but this time using the Voigtlander 15mm f/4.5 Superwide Heliar lens.
It was quite cloudy last Wednesday, but that kind of light is great for flower images. Both images taken with my Sony A7ii and 28-75mm f/2.8 Tamron lens.
It’s the time when dandelions in Toronto start going to seed. This is the view of one, looking down from above.
I met up with my friend Yuri this morning. He is an amazing photographer who can find something interesting in any setting.
This week I met up with my friend Jenny Crowber. I also sing for Jenny in the Voca Chorus of Toronto.
