Excellent stuff and funnily enough I used a Helios 44-2 as a focusing base for a Dallmeyer anastigmat enlarger lens I can't post photo's of the lens as my nephew has it but here is a sample of my daughter from a couple of months ago

I use different m42 extension tubes to get roughly the right distance then the body of the Helios to focus in properly. I added a small lever to the enlager lens to enable the aperture to be altered, and I will post some pics of the mods when I get it back from my Nephew. Taken with a Samsung GX-10



Samsung GX-10,too many Russian Lenses, A lot of Zenits, an Almaz 103 a few Yashica,and finally a Minox35GT
