Very nice, good 3D pop + beautiful bokeh.

Thank you! 😊

if it does fall apart you still might be able to extend it's life. My 30 year old viv 28/f2.5 got so loose the aper ring quit working. I disassembled everything until just the lens stack remained then used that as the basis for a diy tilt lens (see my pinned post for an example). It was an easy mod.

It's one of my favorites and was allegedly intended to be released as one of the original high quality Series 1 lenses before the idea was scrapped for marketing reasons. Do you have the S1 90/f2.5? It's Vivatar's (Tokina) best lens and was top 5 sharpest in the world when it came out.

Nice. Viv 35/f1.9?

The nearby beaches were beautiful, rum was dirt cheap and the chow hall was terrible.

I deleted my earlier response when I realized I was talking about a different photo. My bad.

Wow, that's impressive! Thank you for sharing, I stand corrected 🙂.

Thank you 🙂 this one brings back really fond memories.

We were definitely concerned. There had been other fires we could see from home but this was the closest.

Stunning may be an understatement here...
