Chilades lajus, the lime blue. A small butterfly found in India, Ceylon, Myanmar, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Hainan, Mangulam Island, Sulawesi and the Philippines. "How do you photograph butterflies?" I guess by staying still or using a remote enabled device and hoping your autofocus locks the object perfectly. But what you do if the lens you are using has not got a single electronic part it. You got to freeze yourself still while moving the focus barrel and hoping not to scare the butterfly away. Shot with Minolta Rokkor PF 58mm f1.4 with a +4 macro filter and aperture stopped down to 4. (I had to remember all this as nothing gets incorporated in the pic when using a manual lens). #butterfly #assam #guwahati #gauhati_university #biodiversity #nature #outdoors #green #manual_lens #adapted_lens #minolta_lovers #minolta_rokkor_pf_58mm_f1_4 #adaptedlens #vintage_lens #sonyalpha #sonyindia #sonya5000 (at Университет Гувахати)

Do you see the swirl bokeh of the out of focus areas? No?? Watch the leaves that are on the ground. Now?? Yes.. Ok. So its none of a photoshop edited background but rather a characteristic feature of the lens itself. The Helios 44- 58mm f2. The 44-2 is the model number for the lens while 58mm and f2 are the focal length and aperture. This lens remains favourite for a huge number of vintage lens shooters because of the quality of pics it produces along with its "SWIRL BOKEH" effect. #vintage_lens #vintage_meets_modern #helios44_2 #helios44_2_58mmf2 #soviet_lens #made_in_ussr #adaptedlens #sonyalpha #sonyindia #sonya5000 #guwahati #model #girl #bokeh #swirl_bokeh (at Guwahati, India)
