Well done retoohs...

The first one is my fave: what a look!

Don't worry, be happy!

So enjoy, life is short enough...

Wow! A great pic, here, MJP!

Very personnal rendition: framing, action and editing are superb...

Bravo!

Don't bother, MJP.

Your pic is great as is in color!

Yeah, that's great!

Action and nice grays rendition are here!

But I was more refering to the pic above as a whole. The little girl in the left corner, though OOF, shows a great attitude that complements the whole feeling of your pic, for me.

I like your color editing: it gives a "special" look at it. A bit like a old "forgoten" Kodachrome slide.

Nice and well balanced IMHO...

Nice "intimate and natural" shot, MJP.

Very delicate and charming scene...

Though through my eyes may be a bit too gray allover. Lack a bit of contrast too, if I may say...

But I understand your taste may differ 

I do like this one MJP...

Nice action and nice background as well...

I should be curious to see how this pic comes in B&W. Just speaking...

Arguing...

Packing...

Birding...

This is part of the beauty with legacy lenses, Shaggy: you do it all by yourself...

And if well done (as in your pic above) the result is very rewarding

Taken with my Carl Zeiss Jena Sonnar 135mm

Yummy emotionnal shot, Shaggy

And beautiful light in the eyes...

Pic is sharp but with a mellow rendering, just what the Sonnar gives...

PS: I've noticed your very new avatar

Thats that £8 Tamron 80-210/4 103A, it must be the most under rated lens ever

A "cheap" gem as it seems...

I noticed the nice "classic lens" OOF background: just gently fading...

One more time I can't see your pics, Jimmy!

But don't worry: relax, and please, have a drink!

Warning...
