Beautiful flowers and perhaps a little sublime

This is a post, is for Beautiful Sunday hosted by @ace108, and Sublime Sunday, created and hosted by @c0ff33a,
one day this week the sun actually made a bit of an appearance and I decided to get some shots of flowers in the gardens around the city before the cold spell came and most likely did them in for this season, and glad I did as on Friday the real feel never rose above freezing point and yesterday wasn't much better, today the temps start rising a little but for how long who knows LOL

Flowers are often seen as beautiful and I felt these were, I was playing around with my 50+-year-old Helios 44-2 Russian lens which gives a swirly background bokeh for this shots which adds a bit ) I hope ) of a sublime feel to these shots, its a nice small and light lens, which I may not get a lot of use out of over the colder months but on sunny warmer days I will no doubt take it out again as I know I should be able to get better shots with it but haven't played with it enough yet.

Starting with this rose with lovely warm colors

This next one was a purish white and I thought it worked well in Mono

Thanks I was happy with how they came out

I am not !DERANGED but I do give some away...

Thanks I may be !DERANGED but I also give them away :)

Right you are... let's make the !DERANGED club a real big one where we can have a !BEER alltogether 😉

OHh yes I think there is plenty that would enjoy a !BEER and fit well in the !DERANGED club

Now you're talking!
Here, a !DERANGED to share and a !BEER because we don't have a lemonade token yet 🙃😜😉

Who Knows maybe some !DERANGED or non deranged guy will have a few !BEER and decide to make a lemonade token

I was thinking about making a wine-token, really...
But I still have to read/learn how that is done... but maybe, maybe...
Hopefully nobody will think I'm completely !DERANGED
A Belgian that makes a wine-token and distributing !BEER seems a bit strange 😂

LOL it may sound a little !DERANGED but I like the idea, but maybe thats because i have to much !BEER

Thanks so much truly appreciated

Wow, its really beautiful flowers shot.

Thanks Kindly have a good week ahead :)

Mr. Helios is irresistible. I like not only bokeh, but also the softness with which he takes off.
Great photo!

Yeah its great for such a cheap lens isnt it ;)

I agree. And here it’s not even the price, but the quality of the shooting. This quality is reminiscent of film shooting.

Yes thats very true, I got some new lens today that Ihad ordered so will be trying them out this week, but the Hellios will be slipped into my bag from time to time

Recently, Helios is either on my camera or in my bag. I almost never part with him

With carrying my laptop to and from work I don’t carry to many lenses each day but it is one I often take

Yes, it's worth it. Doesn’t take up much space, light but very good :D

I am surprised those flowers are still out! My roses were gone a long time ago. I think I cut back my bushes a little too much this Spring though, so that could have been part of the problem. We are supposed to be getting up to a foot of snow in some areas over the next couple of days, so the flowers that are left won't be around much longer.

I was surprised as well but looking at the forecast they wont last longer some record breaking cold for this time of year coming ina couple of days

Pretty romantic work there my friend i could see you were loving that well done 👍

Thanks Mate I am having fun with the new lenses. Must say

Haha...i can see that and i am enjoying seeing this amazing photography 👍

That’s so kind if you
Cheers and !BEER

My pleasure 👍



Hey @hangin, here is a little bit of BEER from @tattoodjay for you. Enjoy it!

Cool...thanks @tattoodjay ,,,Cheers👍

Wow, that half a century lens still does wonders.

OHh yeah it is such a fun lenses to use and does what it does so well

Roses are my favorite and I love how you you’ve shown it here!!! Thanks , my friend and take care🥰🌺🤙

Thaks I had to get some shots before the next cold spell comes through and wipes them out, Wednesday morning I am not looking forward to, when I catch the train the real feel will be 12 F Brrr not looking forward to that

These are all beautiful for sure! I love the play on colors you did with the pop of color and the mono!

Gorgeous!!!

Thanks so much truly appreciated :)

As a nature lover, you are right there is nothing more sublime than flowers, large in diverse colors, small, wild, they all have a lovely touch.

Ohh yes I totally agree 👍🙂👍

;)

This photos are so great! Thank you, friend @tattoodjay! Have a nice day!

Thanks and have a great day :)

Love the colour splash I. The first photo, really enhances the rose. Lovely colours in the yellow and white one too.
