Say cheescake and look out Irakly! Love the classic 40's look from the lens and the processing Helen --- very nice.

Tres chic!
great effect with that processing, also the crop is interesting, although one I would not have tried (probably)

Love the look

Reminds me of my Dad's shots while in Japan in the late 50's and early 60's. The colors, and crop are almost a double to his style.
Good work. When can we see more?

Well Irakly I'm giving you some competition in the self portrait realm.... :ROTFL::ROTFL::ROTFL:

Thanx Jim & Charles....
and Charles I love the old 35 elmar
they draw quite differently , very sharp & with dominant B&W tones
harder edge but i think I might be heading in that direction (bad for portraits though better for the nitty,griity of life)

Best to All....:) Helen

I like to think of miself more as a lens colector than an adict. When I was small I had a grate colection of matches that my brother used to diminish to lightup his cigarret's. Now you have me thinking of the 35elmar.

it is more AND than OR.

35/3.5 , 35/2.8 , 35/2 , 35/1.4 & ? you go forwad in time as the lens has more light.

I am starting to sound like Einstein.
