Bubbles In Brooklyn

Love blows in Brooklyn :-)

Note: For this shot I used the old Canon 50mm f/1.2
Leica Thread Mount lens via M mount adapter. The reason
I like using these old lenses is that I can achieve
effects like flare, without having to resort to
Photoshop.

Leica M8 ,Canon 50mm f/1.2 LTM

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Definitely a Hallmark 1970s feel to this in the best way. You could manufacture lens flare like that. Brilliant timing, Sam.

This is beautiful. You used the 50 1.2 in a great way, Sam.
A timeless illustration of love. ~V~

A lovely light of end of the day I suppose(Sam is not a bird of the morning)

The glare definitely gives this image a summery feeling.
