I thought I would try out my 50 year old lenses: Canon FD 50mm f/1.5 SSC and Canon FD 28mm f/2.8 on my Canon R5 with the use of the appropriate adapter. I also use these lenses on my Canon FTb camera.
1) "Lady of Shalott" (David Austin Rose) 50mm with 11mm extension tube.
2) "Frog" 50mm, 10-shot manually focused photo stack.
3) "Our Courtyard" 28mm, 16 shot layered panorama.
4) "Jude the Obscure" (David Austin Rose), 28mm.
Was down in Austin for a bit on a work trip. I've always heard how beautiful the skyline is from the river.
Was a little let down by the clouds, but what can I do!
My two favourite images from my recent night time adventure in Tenerife. Foregrounds and skies were shot separately and blended in PS.
Hi all, I was looking for such a group but see that although there are many members there hasn’t been a single post. Is there interest out there in getting this group going?

Wow! Those colors are so vibrant. Nice subjects too.
"Lady of Shalott" DoF was about 1mm hence the 'Soft' focus.
"Jude the Obscure" is intensely fragrant 'rich notes of guava, sweet white wine, citrus, and myrrh'. (via: Google) and is not longer sold by the the breeder David Austin.
Our landscape if full of fragrance.
Where would I get such an adapter? Using my old Canon lenses on my 5D MkIII would be cool.
The brand I use is from "Fotasy" and purchased of Amazon. Are you talking about FD to EF? Or the earlier R-series?
Lovely shots Dean. I really like the softness of the first.
As a gardener myself I’m amazed at how much you have squeezed into your yard.
Our previous home had a 60' x 80' and was just as full. My wife had a landscape design and maintain business for over 20 years, so our yard was just as packed with all types of plants.
