These were shot last week in Georgetown DC using Vivitar Series 1 135mm F2.3 & Canon 80-200 F4L. Legacy glass seems to have so much character. Visitor 135 is like a wild horse, likes to flare easily, however in the right light, it produces beautiful timeless images. Minimal processing on these.


Most of these images were shot wide open or half stop less than wide open.

Picked up a Vivitar Series 1 200mm F3 a couple of days ago and can't wait to try that out on my next shoot...
