Another Sunday and another virtual film roll to upload from the Day Prime week - which really all happened this weekend

First off the annual excursion of my Yashica 42-75mm f3.5-4.5 on a7

42.1 Calico Mountains Palette on the West side




42.2 Looking towards the east across the southern toes of the Calicos




Next another zoom curio of a decidedly lesser breed: Osawa's MC Macro 24-43mm f3.5-4.5

43.1 Calico Mountains from the northeast




43.2 Macro Mahjong - the red faced player must be losing?



My own red-faced admission: it took me four years before I figured out how to unlock this odd optical duckling's macro range!

Thanks Fred! BTW: Day Prime Week 50 is about to begin, looking forward to your contributions.


I know, I know. Today a grey and wet day, but forecast for the rest of the week is better.
Fortunately your last set here is for the previous week. Otherwise it would put the bar almost discouring high for this week 50

HK50.1 Mealtime

α99 + Sony 50/1.4 @ 50 mm, f/1.4, 1/60 s, ISO 200

And if anybody wonders what is that on the plate: cubed bacon, fried left-over root vegetables (rutabaga, potato and colourful carrots - including some purple carrots, which have coloured most of the lighter coloured veggies too).

I'll be spending days 53, 59 and 65 in planes and airports, with minimal prime opportunities in between ... so I'd better shoot what I can before the travel madness takes over!

Minolta Rokkor-X 50 1.4 on a7 - wide open and at or near MFD:

50.1 Air valves




50.2 Scientific salad spinner




50.3 Bones

I went to Köln to meet Bob and took two lenses for this week's prime challenge and came back with three (and used all three )
Here's the hopefully growing thread with the pictures from there but obviously some of the shots belong here (and in the Meyer thread) as well

Here's the first installment:

50-1: Conga line and a rusty dancer



50-2: Overlooking the Rhine and the Köln skyline



50-3: Walking on the bridge during twilight


All A7 + M-Summicron 50/2 DR
