I went to Canvey Island ...

....that's not something I often write.  Went to pick up an adaptor from a friend to enable me to try out the lens from my own old film camera,  the ever popular Pentax K1000.  Isn't that what everyone had back in the ...whenevers?  Thought I would try it out to see if it was worth shelling out £20 for my own adaptor.  I think I will.   So that will increase  my legacy lens  collection to three.  I think I will stop now - it's just a novelty.  All 3 lenses give a similar effect but this one operates smoothly and may be more comfortable to use if the Helios focus ring cannot be freed up.

It was a lovely day and I really enjoyed myself along Concorde Beach.  Ginny introduced herself to lots of people....as she does constantly!  I could have re-homed her about five times at least.

The wall art?  Eddie & the Hotrods.  The drummer, Steve Nicol,  peeking out from behind his bandmates (as drummers do in a band line-up) lived next door but three and I think I babysat for him as a teenager.
Extras - the view from Concorde Beach, with container ship on its way up the Thames and apricots shot with my latest legacy lens.
