Was going through storage looking for my Hexanon 100/2.8 (still not found), and ran across a couple of my Helios 44's. Realized I've never tried them on the fp, so pulled them out and took them for a run today... ran into a new (old?) friend:

I may have to start calling this the Heron Lens... last time I pulled it out, I saw a very disgruntled heron right after a heavy rain:

Last night I had the urge to grab my S9 and go out on the local roads. I just created a Flickr account and am trying to share my favourites.

I don't know ... that rock at the lower-right appears to have too many fingers?
