A couple Fron The 10-20
I think I like the blue road better than the greeny one in the church picture Daz. I love the back street scene. Are these in Bury? Might get a chance to check them out for myself on Sunday. David PPG: http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/artists/davidtrout

A couple Fron The 10-20
Thanx everyone, I really appreciate your thoughts, Thanx Lads :) The back street is in the Bacup area, actually my ally way. I spat my dummy out over the state it was in, the neighbours heard my little rant and they cleaned it up!! Result!!

A couple Fron The 10-20
Both good images, Daz, the colour balance in the first Church one looks right to me, the adjusted version is not natural, the stone of the Church looks all wrong. I agree that the blue would be there in real life as it is reflecting from the sky. I also agree about the back lane shot - great per...

A quick mess around with the colour sliders produced this.... Is it better? I know the skies burnt out. I didn't try to bring it back. Original below.... --

Birding with DA* 300mm and K5ii
I'm a massive fan of the Sigma 150-500mm OS, I think it's a bargain on a Pentax mount, but there are times when you'll go out with it and really struggle. I'm yet to put my finger on exactly why, I'm presuming unfavourable lighting conditions. So today in the North East it's dark and damp, not cold ...

Grand morning out
You right Gareth, no 6 needs to be popped back into PS to have the colour cast removed. That always happens when i stack the Cokin filters. Really need to buy myself a single 0.6 Hitech filter. Thanks for the kind comments everyone, really appreciate them. 1,2 and 5 are my favourites too. I like ...

beamish
Always wanted to get to Beamish -- not been there yet but got to Black Country Museum two years ago -- didn't use my PENTAX but my 1956 Agfa Isolette III so cannot show the results here. The 'Characters' never mind to be photographed -- I sent Black Country some B&W darkroom prints on old paper and ...

beamish
Great place to visit. Don't forget Blists Hill as well, part of the Ironbridge museums. Enjoyed a visit and using "Real" £.s.p. in the shop. Unfortunately hadn't discovered photography then :( An excuse to go back some day :) Haven't been to Beamish for ages now, but definitely maybe a visit soon...

Rugby league and K3
Nice gritty images Steve, I've always thought that the mud and glore of rugby make for a more dynamic image that football. I also think that now with th K3, the right lens and an competent operator Pentax are back in business for sports shooters as demonstrated by yourself, Gary and others.

A super set of images :) Did you get any of the chaps in green actually holding the ball :) I'm club photographer for Barrow Raiders so concentrate on them more than the visitors, I did have a few of Keighley with the ball admittedly mostly with their back to me, you can see all the photos from the...

Brandy In The Afternoon
Thanks guys! I am going to try out a few other things to light today. Karl, I struggled, with the highlights on the bottle which is why I did not light it from 45°, Agree about portrait mode, but I lost the leaves in the frame. I think the pros must shoot two or three frames and merge them t...

Whisky Bottle
I'm glad you found it useful. I have nearly all of Karl's training DVds and I have found them to be very good. He can be a bit of 'acquired taste' but I have learned a lot from him. He does do an excellent video on photographing a high end watch with one softbox and using focus stacking but i...
