Umbellifer bokeh (Helios 44M-4 2/58 vintage lens)

An Umbellifer about to bloom in Arnot Hill Park, Arnold. Shot while using up my daily lockdown allowance exercise.

Shot using a Helios 44M-4 2/58 vintage lens, with a wide open aperture (maybe f2.8) to create some classic Helios bokeh.

A camera in one hand a dog and lead in the other.

Looks OK to my eye

Nice bokeh, quite contrasty image. Smiled at the camera in one hand and the dog lead in the other!
