Two Poppies already after bloom and slowly starting to decay.
These were photographed last June in Poland with one of the most sought after vintage lenses ever. A Carl Zeiss Biotar.

This particular one was adapted with a Sony E mount, so there's no need for any sort of adapter.
There's not many in the world made like this, That's for sure.
Needless to say that the bokeh is where this little gem shines the most.

Oh my! How dreamy 😍
Have you used that lens for portraits? I’d love to get my hands on one of those to try! (My main camera is an A7II)
Hi
I am not much of a people shooter, so no, I didn't use it for portraits. I prefer nature related subjects.
But my brother in law did. This is actually his lens, I just borrowed it.
You can check one of his images captured with it here:

Very cool - I’ll check it out!

It's a magic lens, but a bit expensive (if you're aiming to get one in good conditions).
Try to get your hands on a Helios 44-2
It's the Russian version. Exact the same optic formula as they "borrowed" the Zeiss plans after WW2.

Greetings @brumest, what a beautiful picture, I love them.
Hello @francyrios75
Thank you!
Sooo beautiful!! I'm a day a way from winning myself my first Carl Zeiss Jena 50 2.8 (1968 m32), i'm accustomed to the wide open 1.4 lenses but i was drawn to the sharpness this lens is said to have. i guess we'll see if it's still got that creammy creammmy bokeh!
You can't go wrong with any of those vintage Zeiss. The Jena 50 2.8 has a gorgeous bokeh.
I own a Flektogon 35 2.4 and it's a remarkable piece of glass too. Very sharp, even when wide open.
