Thanks Ray and good to see you back - you've been missed around here as of late.

Nice to see cats get some "face time". Yours? Name?one more with the Tair-11 135

Yup, actually one of approximately a dozen I take care of in the area.
It doesn't have a name other than psss psss pssss if it (and they) are not already at my heels when I get home. I live right outside Athens, which is considered a summer destination and once September hits, every September that is, a new generation of destitutes find their way to the food & water I put out for the ones I am already taking care of. This grey one is one of this season's new family members.
Evidently, I am cat person. Always have been.
Some teensie-weensie flowers for you all, I have no idea what they are. Where's @Ish when you need her botanical knowledge?
They look like some kind of Muscari, Alex. However there are so many different species and varieties that look similar I'm afraid I can't be any more specific than that. Spring bulb. Hope it helps!
Thanks Ish! Hope you're keeping well. Missing your interesting eye for photography around here.They look like some kind of Muscari, Alex. However there are so many different species and varieties that look similar I'm afraid I can't be any more specific than that. Spring bulb. Hope it helps!
Still at the recent garden show, I was mesmerised by this cool fireplace, until I spotted the nearly $1,000 price tag!
Just to show it's not always raining in Wales (it did later though). Comments always appreciated.

Thanks Alex! I just don't seem to have had the chance to do much photography this year. There always seems to be something else that needs doing
Hoping very much that will change soon.

Messed around with an helios 44-2 58mm f/2 at the antique shop, notorious for their swirly bokeh.
That's not half bad, but I did not purchase that particular lens as it was severely banged up, however, optics seem to be working fine
minor note. shot on the a6000 as the adapter I have in hand (chinese non brand) is cumbersome to mount on the a6500 due to the later's weather sealing and/or tighter mount. I scoured youtube and found a dude who used the K&F Concept Adapter M42 - E-mount. I suppose as the video was specific to vintage lenses, he would have mentioned any trouble adapting/fitting to the a6500. I guesstimate it was not a promotional video (no links were included in his description). If anyone has any empirical evidence of m42 adapters that fit well on a6500/a7ii, please let me know. - cheers

Went for a walk about in the dull foggy morning. I'm in love with the brick on this bridge. More photos on my Flickr from the outing. I think the PP gives you a vibe of how it felt this AM.

Beautiful steeple. My only minor quibble is with the line in the upper right corner. Minor distraction that would be easy to crop out
