[Leica] Tuesday Trees

[Don Dory]

Greetings to all.  Continuing this weeks journey into old lenses adapted to
more modern cameras we have a trio of images using some 50's German
telephoto's.  The 150 is a Heinz Kilfit Kilar and the 400 is a Meyer Optik
Gorlitz Telemegor.  They have a similar 5 element design that creates
interesting OOF effects while not being terrible as lenses considering the
lack of modern glass.

Anyway first is a single leaf hanging on:

Next is a cluster of leaves that have decided to turn brown:

Last is another of my neighbors' magnolia tree.  The slight glow is
especially common in older single coated lenses from the fifties and early
sixties:

All the best.  I will get to the interesting 135's fairly soon.
