Don't be so modest, there's definitely some skill in capturing those images, regardless of the subject.

That is still with the Jupiter 8. I'm really enjoying the little bugger. I haven't tried any Zeiss lenses unfortunately.

Hi Guys, These pictures made me want to go buy a Jupiter 8! I love the legacy glass characteristics.

I had a Jenna Flektogon 35mm f2.4 up to a month or so ago. It gives beautiful pictures when you can nail the focus. Unfortunately the focus throw is too short for my clumsy technique right now so I sold it on.

When I get better with manual focus - still practicing on a Leica Elmar-c 90 and a Jenna 135 f3.5 (both beautiful BTW), then I may try again but for 50 & 35 I have gone the easy route and bought the dedicated lenses for the camera.

Of course as usual, I have no quality images to back this claim up sorry.

Ken.

Grab yourself a Jupiter 8. You can get them for peanuts and they render really nicely. Here's a shot I took on the way to the post office this afternoon.

Met up with a photog friend last night at sunset, and were treated to an amazing display of color (never seen anything like it).
We've had the oddest weather lately. Monsoons in SoCal, in August.

Lovely. Whenever I make sunset plans, it seems the weather has other ideas. It's nice when your schedule and a picturesque sky come together.

both pics have exceptional colors and scenery !
 
Mine for today. I suspect I will be posting several more from this set as well. Hopefully, no one gets tired of her, but this shoot really came out better than I could have hoped. The sun was high and the sky was cloudless. Luckily, I was able to find some open shade, fill in with some off camera flash and make a go of it.

not having any available model, so I have to practice on myself (which means a lot of walk back to camera, then back to speedlight, then back to mark, and repeat ad nauseam.)

I'll keep at it.

It's annoying, but it's the best way to learn how to utilise the technique. I had some time to fill in before a shoot on the weekend and figured I'd play around with some low key and new gels…

And before you little ****ers start. Yes, I know…I'm not a very good model. Leave me alone. :D

I like 5211 the best...
 
Sunset in Portugal

Was on holiday in the Algarve last month. Tried to get a decent sunset shot. Not sure about the comp on this one.

Plus obligatory pool shot...

I've been thinking of doing a shot like this for a while, and finally had a chance to try my hand at it over the weekend. Since part of the frame is submerged underwater, I had to resort to my only waterproof camera at hand - an iPhone in a lifeproof case. With its tiny lens, it took a dozen tries to get the water line where I wanted it (sort of). Next time will have to try and get a less distracting background ;)
