Fun morning shooting with my grandpa's old Konica Hexanon lens on my modern Nikon Z5ii body. Really like the quirky results the vintage lens gets.

Heute in #Köln gewesen, uns mit einer lange verschollenen Freundin getroffen. Mit dabei: Eine #Konica autoreflex TC mit einem #Hexanon AR 40mm F1.8. Es ist Frühling, die Sammlung muss gelüftet werden! 😉

Throwback Saturday

Today's task is to look for a snap with a #background theme. This pic from 2018 of a newly emergent shroom is as much about the #bokeh. It was shot with a a Konishiroku 47mm f1.9 taken from a fixed lens #Konica rangefinder and helicoid mounted on Sony A7ii.
