In his face
A nice link between the statue and the out of focus ships. I think the first shot works well, because the out of focus and bright area IS the subject, the statue is looking towards this, the "lure of the sea" The second shot s just a picture of a statue, the first tells you something about mankind's...

Shooting with the Kr and 28mm smc lens
That's a good result, Phil, from a nice lens - which version captured this image? The first one I got was the SMC Pentax-A 28 which is great. However, last year I was fortunate to find on eBay an SMC Pentax-F 28 2.8, which is an accurate auto-focus lens. I think any version of the 28 on a Pentax DSL...

Inspiring subject matter, nice images and obviously a very good combination of camera and lens. Good work. Karlo Shame about the tilting horizons in #2 and#3 though. I know you don't like Photoshop philstaff but this is one occasion when you need it, or something similar. Either that you must p...

Finlay ... Sigma 85mm f1.4 test
A lovely perspective and a length thats allowed you to stand nicely back .... I enjoy 70mm for my portraits at present, but this looks even more ideal, and of course you've got a real speed machine! Actually I'm surprised to see as much DOF as there is here, but I guess if you were a lot closer then...

Windmill
Those wide views are very good .... It's the sort of subject that benefits from being seen in its context, and a nice idea to have the back and front lighting examples.

Morning is has broken
Its the sort of day when many wouldn't bother taking the camera out ... me included mostly, but I can see there's potential for good shots when that misty stuff is around. I like this photo generally, the balanced framing works well and there's something to look at through towards the back of th...

Norman Tower Bury St Edmunds
Thanks both for your replies. This tower is situtated on a narrow path with a busy road just behind so one cannot get too far back for fear of being run over hence the difficulty is getting a 'straight' photo. I could of course use the gridline in the viewfinder which I always forget about!

More NEC Images
Ah, there's that big lump :D It looks very deep, that hotshoe sits a long way back. Our sports and wildlife experts will certainly look the part and easily mix in with the big boys carrying that with one of those new zooms attached!

K10D : Brentwood Charity runners
The Annual Brentwood 13 mile Half Marathon and 3 mile Fun Run took place on Sunday 22nd March and this year I used only my 'Kit' lens the 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 SMC Pentax-DA AL and had the usual 'Back Focus' problems -- even when I used 'manual Focus' I had to focus well forward to get main subject shar...

K10D : Brentwood Charity runners
Have you tried back button focussing, Set the camera to continuous focus, then with your finger on the trigger ready to shoot, keep your thumb on the " AF " button on the right hand side, should be fairly easy to do, has worked for me in the past particularly shooting birds flying towards the ca...

All Jap Bike Show 2015
Great photos - very nostalgic for me. i have not seen a Suzuki GT750 "water-pumper" for years. I had their little brother, a second-hand GT550 in 1978/9. That was when the Johannesburg Traffic Police were replacing their water-pumpers with GS750's. Thanks again for bringing back old memories.

All Jap Bike Show 2015
Wonderful photographs take me back to a time when I was an active biker. I owned some of the bikes you have shown including a Suzuki T500M and then a Suzuki GT500A. Great carefree days when summer seemed to last forever. Now in my 60's and although I still hanker after a bike and keep up with the la...
