smoke

I was about to make some coffee this morning, but I noticed this

beautiful sky and grabbed my camera and shot some frames. I wanted

to include that plume of smoke to the photo, to make it maybe a little

bit more interesting instead of plain colored sky. I shot it through

window (three glass elements), but it didn't seem to affect much. I used

quite old manual focus lens (K35/3.5 @ f5.6). Click the photo to view

Beautiful work with very nice lighting, Timo!

With best regards,

I like this quite a bit. Mixed feelings are brought forth with the beauty of the "slanting"sky and the presence of ominus smoke. Both make for a end result, a image that the viewer will spend some time looking at, far more time then would have been spent if the smoke were not there, I would conclude.

Kind Regards, Todd

Hi Timo,

An excellent scene , with a beautiful tones and the mystery of what the smoke is all about.

I really enjoy seeing the very good lens from years past, placed into action in the digital world.

As I have said many times, a fine lens from the past is often just as good (perhaps better) as today's releases.

Best Regards,  Mike

good work...congrats
