Again taken from the north side. The ship is one of many sightseeing ships that go up and down the Main. Quite nice on a sunny and warm day.

10/27/11 Voigtlaender Heliar 75 f2.5This is one taken north of the Main on my way back from downtown. The tower that can be seen in the backgroud is the Henninger Turm (the local beer is called Henninger). There used to be a rotating cafe at the top. Must see if it's been restored and back in business again. Great view from there. These barges constaltly travel up and down the Main and some are really huge. Always a great sight. 1324

10/26/11 Voigtlaender Heliar 75 f2.5In the foreground are the new flats built during the rejuvination phase for this area. Not cheap! Wouldn't mind one myself but I's being realistic about this, it's just not going to happen. Must be a great view from the top of those buildings. They all look down on the river Main (which runs through Frankfurt). 1457

10/25/11 Voigtlaender Heliar 75 f2.5There's some interesting new archtectural buildings popping up in the area right now. This is one of them. It was quite a tricky exposure as the mid-afternoon sun was directly on it. 1465

10/24/11 Voigtlaender Heliar 75 f2.5This is part of downtown Frankfurt, just a part of the skyline one can see from south of the city. 1234

10/23/11 Voigtlaender Heliar 75 f2.5These buildings are not as close together as it seems. Again the Helair has brought everything closer together. A great effect that can be put to good use on many occasions. 1218

10/22/11 Voigtlaender Heliar 75 f2.5I like to think of this building as Gurkin 2, or Cigar 2, not dissimilar to the one in London. I like the way that this short tele lens has contracted the buldings in the background, bringing them all close together. 1288

10/21/11 Frankfurt West HarbourDuting the next few days the posts are going to be about the Voigtlaender Heliar 75 f2.5 and the city of Frankfurt. I would just like to post a few images of this, the financial center of Germany. Only by using these manual focus lens that I actually slowed down when taking a picture to see what I had in the frame. I think it helps a lot. Using AF lenses I used to put the catera to my eye and press the shutter release, not really thinking obout much else. I got lazy and my photography suffered.
This first one is the exhibition tower as seen from the south side of the Main. 1334

10/20/11 Voigtlaender Heliar 75 f2.5 IVThere are some very photogenic buildings around the harbour in Frankfurt. It's been recently redeveloped (and still ongoing). Wiish I could afford one of theose penthouse flats down by the dock. Maybe I should try being a photographer (or maybe not).

10/20/11 Voigtlaender Heliar 75 f2.5 IIIHere's the next Heliar image. I can't seem to stop looking at the quality of these images. You probably can't see how good it is with these online images, but take my word for it, at full size they are just terrific. 1377
