Hello all,
 the sun came out for about 35 minutes today, I trimmed back the 
Hazelnut tree and Posy grabbed some sunbathing time.

neighbour coming - she did

Taken with another "cheap" second-hand lens, this time a formerly 
rattling Zeiss Sonnar (C/Y mount) 135/2,8. After seeing these at full 
resolution  on screen I'm thoroughly blown away by the sharpness and 
colour rendition  of these Zeiss lenses. I must check this one against 
the Leica  Elmarit-R  equivalent  one day.

BTW, The strange object in the background is a pot-bellied barbecue grill
