209: Bound Beans

A roving squash tendril wraps around this green bean pod. I'm not bothering to free the pod, as these wrappings are surprisingly tough; and it's probably doing more good to leave it as it is. It looks interesting, so there's another reason to leave it.

Settings: f/4, 1/60, ISO 400, 50mm Pentacon M42, 9mm extension. Slight cropping, sharpening and noise reduction.

202: Spider in the Parsley

This is one of those shots taken quickly, and without much thought. What I liked about this was the unexpected detail lurking in the focus area it's cropped to.
It's nice to think that I may have noticed it subconsciously, but most probably not - just a curious accident.

Settings: f/4, 1/160, ISO 100, 50mm Pentacon M42, 19mm extension. 100% crop.

189: Hilda's Berries

There berries are fresh; some slightly shriveled areas, but they're still tasty.
The variety of dark red tones of these berries show up well.

Settings: f/4, 1/180, ISO 100, 50mm Pentacon M42, 17mm extension, 1/4 flash, white cards, tripod.

188: Blackcurrants Aplenty

Settings: f/5.6, 1/180, ISO 100, 50mm Pentacon M42, 17mm extension, 1/4 flash, white cards, tripod.

184: Six Jets, Smoke Trails

The Red Arrows, performing at the Waddington Air Show. I'm not sure if they were supposed to only be flying six jets that time; maybe some of them were not ready. I also can't tell if there are five of six smoke trails here, but I reckon it's probably five.
I particularly like how the sun shines brightly though the peak of the smoke trails.

Settings: f/6.3, 1/1000, ISO 200, P-FA 50mm.

156: A Gap in the Lilac

Settings: f/1.8, 1/4000, ISO 100, P-FA 50mm.
