Just to continue with shots made with old lenses, here's another of a very interesting and entertaining gentleman I met while on holiday earlier in the year. Like the shot I posted on Thursday, this one was taken with the Takumar 105mm lens (but without the extension tubes). These Takumar lenses, originally made for Pentax 35mm film cameras, are renowned for their sharpness and colour and although one must manually focus and set the exposure and shutter speed, they are still very popular.

Awesome portrait! Great details and a wonderful way to capture expression and emotions of the gentleman!
Definitely a very beautiful photo...amazing quality!
I'm sure I saw this guy at Hillside Mall the other day.
Ho Ho Ho!
Really nice portrait. These old lenses are still good.
I note you have put ecard facility on you site. Nice idea.
An interesting face well captured.
Excellent "capture".
If this were black & white, you'd have a Karsh.
