Nice to see cats get some "face time". Yours? Name?

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.

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.

Still at the recent garden show, I was mesmerised by this cool fireplace, until I spotted the nearly $1,000 price tag! :eek:

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
