Autumn amazes me. Every year!
Just like winter snow is a surprise for drivers every year :)
I know it is coming. And then it hits me with all those colours and shapes and smells and I am so stunned I don't know where to look. After the long, boring and hot summer it is like a boost of energy for me.
Took the little Helios 44-2 for a ride today (even though I still had my trusty Sigma 105 with me.. just in case). To catch those colours and bubbles. And boy it showed me what it can. Again!
First stop were those golden leaves of Chinaberry tee. Soon they will all turn bright yellow. This is just a start.
Those trees meant to be fast growing and are a good decoration. In spring they are covered in lilac flowers, suring the summer they are full of fruits and in the fall they turn yellow.
This one also had a nice lichen which I couldn't resist to shoot.
And here is another little Helios surprise. The sharpness is just amazing! You can see the little black hair on it! I was about 1 - 1,5 away from the tree.
A little bit further away in a small park I found more colours and more lichens. It was noon and the park was completely empty despite really nice weather. Only a maintenance guy was mowing grass on the opposite site.
All the space just for me :)
I think My favourite Sigma 105 will take a little break this Fall. All the colours and softer light are asking for this type of bokeh.
If you ever wonder what to get to play with bokeh... or if you are just curious about the old Russian lenses. Get this one!

Thank you :)
Great photos, especially the photogenic lichen!
Thank you! Lichens always look great :)
Sigma 105 ... is that one that weighs 1.5kg and costs over $ 1000? :)
I'm sure this is a great fast lens and I can see great bokeh.
... but I'll dream for now :-))
Hahaha.. the weight... maybe. The price hell no! :p I see there is one with f1.4 that costs that much!
My one is f2.8.
But those were shot with super cheap Helios... $50? :p
105mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM MACRO is over $ 500. This is not enough :)
Lens with f / 1.4 price more than $ 1000 ... :(
Helios 44-2 gives excellent bokeh, and if you turn the front glass ... it's absolutely fantastic!

Цена 105mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM MACRO больше $500. Это не мало:)
С 1,4 цена больше $1000...:(
Гелиос 44-2 даёт отличное бокэ, а если перевернуть переднее стекло... там совсем фантастика!
Wow, I simply love autumn and your photos are amazing! This is my favorite one, the colors and light effects are just awesome :) thanks for sharing with us, I wish you a nice day
