On the Cote d'Azur is always good...

This is a continuation of a series of photographs about time and hours, about desires, opportunities and happiness. France. Cote d'Azur. Mid of Autumn. Resting on the Cote d'Azur is always good, and especially in autumn. Here, on the Cote d'Azur, I would call this time the time of pleasure. There are many signs of autumn, but they are so wonderful! Invigorating sea, gentle sun and empty beach and empty all service. (Some other signs of autumn are listed in the episode above). And this unforgettable melody begins to sound somewhere else in Italy and sounds and sounds over the entire hospitable and attractive autumn Cote d'Azur. #France #autumn #sea #beach #genre #portrait

My parents used to visit there (Beaulie-sur-mer) by late October for approx. three weeks, so I have also good memories of the region from when I chauffeured them down from Austria when my dad did not drive anymore.

Dear YOHANE.
Thank you for your attention, opinion and emotions.

Dear MSIEGEL.
Thank you for your attention, opinion and emotions.
I think your emotions and mine are not accidental. Cote d'Azur hardly leaves anyone indifferent. I think the Cote d'Azur is a MEGA huge generator of emotions, generator the energy of which is enough for everyone. And for those who were there and, perhaps, for those who have never been there. Rest on the French Riviera is a time of special kind of pleasure. Perhaps these pleasures have a common noun - Cote d'Azur.

Dear AWA-AWA,
Thanks for your reply. You are right, that was most likely the reason why my parents went there for over 20 years each autumn!

Dear MSIEGEL
It reminds me of something ..
I know a lot of such examples.

Dear AWA-AWA,
thanks for reply and attention!

Hi AWA-AWA could you tell me which lens you have been using for those portraits shot with Minolta Dynax 5? BTW All of your pictures are stunning.

Dear PRAWIEJAKJA.
Thank you for your attention, opinion and emotions.
Thank you for paying attention to this photo and to my favorite Minolta Dinax 5. I already made a message about my favorite under the photo "BETTER THAN MOUNTAINS CAN ONLY BE MOUNTAINS ..."
But special thanks to you for the opportunity to continue.
The Minolta Dynax 5 and other Minolta AF cameras have a wonderful, simply unique ability to drive, drive very well, all the lenses that are released with this mount. And, of course, these are not only Minolta lenses. There is an opinion that the camera does not make the photo, the lens does the photo. I agree with this statement. Therefore, when choosing photographic equipment, I use this rule. Looking at the photos on this resource, I see that many do this. I'm not one of those amateur photographers who wants to have time to get experience using all the interesting photographic equipment. And I have rather limited preferences and therefore limited experience. Perhaps that is why I can very accurately and honestly say with which lens, camera and film which photo was taken. I don't remember the settings, of course. Feel free to ask if you are interested in a specific result. As for this photo, this is the result of Minolta AF 100 mm f/ 2. There are two more photos taken with this lens: "ON THE COTE D'AZUR IS ALWAYS GOOD..." and "KONICA AND SPRING AND... (PHOTO 5(ADDITIONAL ) OF 4)".
There are no other photos taken by me and the Minolta AF 100 mm f/2 lens in my LOMO albums

Dear AWA-AWA,
Thank you for the extensive feedback, I recently bought two Minolta Dynax bodies, and am looking around for good reasonably bright prime lenses for that system (i have two kit lenses which are not bad I just don't like zooms) 100mm is a bit tight for my taste but looking at the pictures you took with it it's definitely on my radar now. 50mm and 35mmm are my favorite focal lengths do you have any experience with those for the Minolta AF amounts, maybe something you could recommend in that range?

@prawiejakja
Dear PRAWIEJAKJA.
Good evening.
You very accurately describe the feeling of using a lens with a focal length of 100. I would put it another way. There is simply never enough time for a lens with F100. F 100 is always with me, there are extremely few photos with him, and I always regret it. Perhaps F 100 is very much replaced by the 24(!) -105 lens for me ... A unique lens. Strongly recommend. Of course, the main thing in it is the continuation of the logic of MINOLTA DINAX - this is compactness. This lens notice has problems with sharpness at infinity. They happen, sometimes, like a suddenly. But if you avoid them, then 24-105 is an indispensable assistant for me. For example "VERY DELISHESE!", "FULL-LENGTH PORTRAIT", "TATYANA", "THE PLEASANT DUTY", "BRISTOL INTERNATIONAL BALLOON FIESTA", there are others...

Dear PRAWIEJAKJA.
Good afternoon.
Despite the fact that we have snow, my photos show autumn. Especially in continuation of our conversation, I show three photographs taken by me on MINOLTA lenses with F 50, 35 and 28. With those lenses that I described to you. These are not test photos. These are photos from one short trip to our Altai in the fall of 21 years. Different days. different lighting conditions. I always have my travel photobag with me. And we were lucky not only with the weather, but also with the mood.

On the Cote d'Azur is always good...
