Digesting the daily News with Helios-44-2 58mm F2.0

            Yesterday, I was surprised with a generous act. One of my friends gave me an Helios-44-2 F2.0 ! Glass from the Ural ! 
This 50 years old lens is a real gem. In my twenties I was too stupid to understand its positive sides. Since then I always regretted its loss. Today in my seventies, I'm mighty pleased it returned in my "palet".

DEAR FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUES; THANK YOU FOR VIEWING, FAVING AND COMMENTING MY DIGITAL OBSERVATIONS.
