Taken in 1977 in Bukavu, Kivu Province of the Congo (Zaire at that time). The feeling of this picture reminds me of TwinPeaks.

        ...this brings back many memories. Particularly the taste of (African) Fanta. Yes, it was different.

Hi Aryel,

Not my photo but a couple of quick comments. I don't know your photography background, particularly with respect to manual focus lenses so please take this in a positive way.  

Depth of focus is roughly one third in front and two thirds behind the point of focus and of course varies greatly with the aperture.  Zone focusing is the method of focusing using the depth of field scale etched onto the lens (and sadly missing from most modern autofocus lenses).  On the lens barrel look at the depth of field indications for a given f-stop and set your focal point so that your intended area of focus is about 1/3 of the range shown, then you can see the nearest a furtherest areas which will be acceptably sharp in your image. Alternatively pick a point to focus on and then read where the focus will be acceptable from the lens barrel.

Hope this helps,

Dave

Hi Dave,

Thanks a lot. It does help. I’ll try to be more conservative on the front focus part. So far I was relying on the scale and just setting it so that it reaches infinity. I bracketed focus a bit so hopefully I’ll get some keepers.

M5, Summicron 50, Kodachrome

Beautiful photo Arnaud! And BTW, I think this photo proves very well that it does not need to be a razor sharp photo to be a great photo! As Ken Rockwell puts it "The more you know about photography, the more you know that lens sharpness doesn't matter." when talking about 90 Summicron here https://www.kenrockwell.com/leica/90mm-f2.htm

Twice a day ...👍

Best spot for dog-walk 😉, the 'bord de Seine' must be wonderful with this autumn lighting & colours.

Iles de la Cité or better yet Saint-Louis , seen from those bridge pictures.

My daily walk with Oliver consists of leaving from the Pond des invalides, all the way to Ile de la cité, and back. I get to walk on both banks. It takes about 1h15. 

I like it in the autumn, but my favourite are the June evenings.

Oh and clearly, I'm not the only one enjoying the walks. Oliver loves them too.

Many thanks, Peter.

You're welcome Steven, credit where credit is due...........I like too the look of the 35 Nokton in this snap. I'd suggest that you should try and see if you can find a 40mm 1.4 VC Nokton to try out too, that has a look I think you'd like as well. It's a flawed lens in some respects, but wide open the flaws can give a etherial look to the images. I really like the lens, I've owned it for years now, others have come and gone but this is a "keeper".......And by the way of all the colour films you have used and shown on these pages the Vision 3 stocks are by far the best in tone and texture to my eyes. It almost makes me want to spool off some of the 35mm short-ends I have here in the congélateur and forsake B&W for a while............Almost.
