What can I say?
I am a huge fan of this lens.
I don't particularly like the famous swirly bokeh much, but I love all the rest.
The colors and contrast are simply amazing. The sharpness is quite impressive for such an oldie, and the blurred background (bokeh) always turns out like an oil painting.
All that for less than 50 bucks, boys and girls!

Pines are the dominant specie in this area, so these cones were all over the place screaming to be photographed.
In case you missed it, the lens I used here was one of my trusty Helios 44-2
