Phil in Colour (Vintage Jupiter 9 , 85mm lens)

I normally post photos of me in mono, because I love mono portraits and I think I look better in mono than colour.

Anyway, to balance things out, here I am in colour, captured by a my beautiful Russian Jupiter 9 , 85 mm vintage lens. Shot with a wide open aperture.

My hair is a bit long in the photo, good job I am going for a trim next week.

A beautiful lens for sure, it needs a beautiful model to do it justice, in the meantime you will have to make do with me !!!

Heyy there, Phil! Always good to catch your smile

With that smile on your face you always look great, Phil. You seem to have a lovely suntan at the moment.

@busylady Judith , I handed the camera to my wife, told her where to stand , having pre-focused it for her (manual focus vintage lens) , although Jane did wiggle the focus ring a bit
