Grange Park in B&W with Taylor-Hobson 75mm f2 TV Lens

Grange Park is one of my favourite places to take pictures on my lunch hour walks. I visit the park at least once a week and often more frequently.  It's also a park where people like to stroll, or sit on its many park benches. Even in the winter, many people spend their lunch hour here, to temporarily get away from the busy office routine.

This set of pictures was shot with the Sony NEX-6 and the Taylor-Hobson 75mm f2 TV lens.  This lens lacks a focusing mechanism and I have it mated to the Yeenon 18-33mm focusing helicoid, which I reviewed here.  It's a good combination and they look very nice and balance well together.  So far, the Yeenon helicoid has held up well, though I have not used it as vigorously as I did with the previous, cheaper ones.
