Lazy garden afternoon

A cup of hot coffee - ✔️
Music on - ✔️
Procrastinating like a champ - ✔️
Still a bunch of stuff to do - ✔️
But you know what they say: What you have to do today, do tomorrow... 😉

And so after browsing photos in various folders for the past hour I picked the ones from my mum's garden again. The place filled with all kids of flowers and herbs. Most planted on purpose. Some are allowed to grow cause thy are nice or moody bothers removing them.

And this is the place where I go look for something to shoot. No bugs this time. I am sure they are there, but it's the wrong lens to catch them. This lens is very anti-bug, but very pro-bokeh.

The colours and bokeh on this Takuar 35 are great! Soon after I also tried Takumar 50 which is also a very bokehlicius lens, but it seems softer and the bokeh bubbles are bigger - a better one between those two if you ask me. But I guess it depends what you prefer and what result you are looking for.

Very beautiful photos!

Bonus kitty cat that was spying on me from above. I think she got eventually bored.

Or maybe she wanted to take a picture too :-)

She run away from me pretty fast :P

Probably scared that it would turn out badly in the photo 😂

Great bokeh photos @ewkaw 😊
Lots of flowers, to bad no bugs. Maybe next time.

Thank you!
I bet the bugs were happy not to be bothered this time :)

You are welcome 😊
Sometimes they need a rest 😉😁

Beautiful pictures. Finally spring is here. Most beautiful time of the year.. When everything is growing

Thank you! I saw some blooming peach trees already... in February! :o

Same here where I live.. Finally some life around us 🙈 beautiful pictures. What equipment do you use

This was Sony a7R + Pentax Takumar 35mm lens I borrowed from my brother.
I normally shoot with Nikon. I like his toys though :))

I love the bohek 🤩 great combo
I just looked at pictures again and saw at the end you mentioned your gear 🙈🙈 i wish I have brother or sister from whom I can borrow lenses 😂 lucky you

Yeaaa lucky me :p He has quite the arsenal :D

You got some pretty cool bokeh bubbles!
Lovely photos, and I must say that I find the first and second one super impressive!
"Very bokehlicius lens" indeed :)

Thanks! They did turn out pretty nice :)

Those are a lot of creamy bokeh.
need to look at the price of the lens,
super shots as usual : )

Some old ones are not expensive at all and can produce some really nice bokeh effects. Definitely worth buying one... or two :p

I will definitely buy one when the budget is there to buy one or two, or along with the new camera. LOL

Hope I can make some as creamy bokeh as yours. :)

I am sure you will be able to. They are quite easy to work with when you get the hang of it. And they are made for the bokeh effect :)

"Bokehlicius" hahahaha :) .... Nice set of shots, yes great!.... But mi vote this time is for the cat's shot!.... Is a "Catilicius" shot....

Catilicius kitty cat thanks you :D

Beautiful pictures ^-^

Thanks!

Nice to see you active :)

Bokeh is a term I'm unfamiliar with. I'm thinking of depth of field? Perhaps I'm mistaken

The yellow and purple make a great combination on those flowers. I don't see that enough naturally occurring for some reason.

Yea it is related :) Bokeh is the blurry background you get usually when shooting with shallow DOF.

PIZZA!

Bonus kitty could count as a very big bug on a very big plant.

Hahaha true!

Very good picture, friend, I saw where you live in Portugal, I am a person who really likes Portugal. When Portugal won the Euro Cup,In my hometown I am a true Portugal supporter, in the big football cup I always idolize Portugal.. I am also a CR 7 lover

Thank you!
Yea I live here, not a football fan though :)

they say: What you have to do today, do tomorrow

Do they? ))) I was told all my life like "don't postpone for tomorrow if you can do it today". But I really love your version 😊 🤘

Actually I think there is another version: What you have to do today, do the day after tomorrow - you will have two days off 😂

🤣🤣🤣💯👍

When I looked at the first photos, I thought I had to get that Helios...but...now I don't know what to do first anymore:(

Ohhh I dunno.. both are cool :D
Get the one you find first :p

These old lenses are truly something different he.

Oh yesss.... They create completely different world.

Thank you @elemarg25 :)

Wow! Beautiful pictures

Thank you :)

Aww, I have a kitten exactly the same, but he's tiny haha, he's also very naughty. You know, a long time ago I had a camera and I liked to photograph plants, animals or anything where I could apply background blur and generate that "bokeh" effect, I loved it! ♥

You don't shoot anymore? I find it quite relaxing just to go out and shoot whatever.

I don't 😔, I found it relaxing to draw haha, but since you remind me, when I go to the beach I'll take some interesting photos from the site 🤩

Drawing is relaxing too. I suck at it though :)

Nice bokeh in those pictures 😍!!!

Thanks :)
