So this is where the cool kids are hanging out 
Has been quiet on some of the other frequented threads. Thought I would post a contribution over here. Broke out the Df and put on my Helios-44M 58/2 that has been modified for F mount.
Spring has finally arrived

It is 58mm f/2. The 44-M is just part of the lens model name. There a number of Helios-44 variants.

Got it. Just checked, and it appears to be an unbelievably priced offering. How do you like the lens? I have a feeling mount conversion may cost as much as the lens itself.

I really like it for the unique look it has. You either love or hate the bokeh in some situations. I bought it from a seller in Kiev Ukraine a couple years ago. The lens was new old stock and was already converted. $59 shipped. It did take about a month to get here through customs. According to the serial number it was made in 1982. I also have one made in 1984 in M42 screw mount that I use on my Fuji X-Pro2. It was as new in a bakelite case still with the instruction manual (in Russian of course). Very inexpensive and fun to use. I read that they were the most mass produced lenses made. So not too unusual to still find them new.

Thank you very much Luka
It is a Nutria, you can see its orange teeth a bit.
I had a very busy time and I have a lot to catch up. I still have lots of Nikon images to share but I have to admit that the Sony A7III dragged me back to the Sony side, mostly because I prefer the EVF with all its informations.
This is my ugly photographers face when I am concentrating on manual focusing (here with a Sony A7II and a Canon FD 4/200). Shot by Phillip Reeve with my D750 and the gorgeous Nikkor 2.8/70-200 E FL:

Thank you for the information. I did read it is known for swirly bokeh. 50s are my favorite range, dangerous lure.

I never heard about Nutria, so I googled and found out about this animal. Very interesting, with interesting history too.
This thread taught me about a lens I never knew much about, and about an animal I never knew existed within one page. Very informative !!

Grateful to you folks for the ' Likes '. Thank you so very much.
I attempt to swing by North America, mainly during the autumn season. Family, friends; but more importantly the colors
of autumn. Gawd, I never grow tired of the colors. The brisk sunlight during and the changing of the colors on the vegetation mesmerizes me.
I venture out, camera in the car, and just drive. Anywhere. Stop anywhere there is something that catches my eye.
This time around I was heading towards the Blue Ridge Highway and the sights that greeted me were awesome..
These are JPGs, mostly straight from the cam, maybe a slight crop and resize for the web. Unless I need to print, there was no need to open the NEF files!!
