A not-quite-so-mundane New York building
Beautiful David! I'm so happy to see someone appreciative of New York old Architecture. That is the area where I usually park my car when we drive in. If you stand back a little (a couple blocks),, you can get some great photos of the very top arches. This is a great building, but not a place I ca...

Flashes, A Flag and Domestic Portraits
I'm going to revive this and add another couple of examples because this is mainly about on-camera flagged flash, and this is something I have become very passionate about .... this is a great technique that transforms on-camera flash results into something more akin to complicated off-camera setups...

Flashes, A Flag and Domestic Portraits
Fantastic set of images. When you talk about flagging the flash - have you been inspired by Neil Van Niekirk's "Black Foamie Thing" ? . Yep, I've got his book about on-camera flash and it's now rather well worn! A couple of his wedding examples of the bride and bridesmaids getting ready use the e...

RAF Cosford Shoot
Yes great capture. Better not say you shot it, it might fire back! It looks threatening. Yes, seems the K-1 has revived the Pentax brand... at last. Quite deservedly.

RAF Cosford Shoot
Hi Mcpieman, Here's the , many sell out very quickly, the last one within 2 weeks and that was for 2 days, I've booked another shoot with a Vulcan at Wellesbourne for this October, I booked it last Nov and again it sold out within 7 days. You just have to keep trying and be prepared to commit...

RAF Cosford Shoot
Just booked on the Harrier and Jaguar sunset shoot at RAF Cosford on 20th April. Looking forward to it very much. Any advice on what lenses to use Chris? Are you pretty close and need to go wide in order to get others out of the shot, or are you set back and need an bit of zoom? I'll probably ju...

Long distance lunches
I took Mrs K10D over to The Brasserie at The Courtyard for lunch on Saturday. It's on the A65 near Settle. The food is excellent. We then went on up to Kirkby Lonsdale. I took a few shots there of the Devils bridge. This one with the 17-28mm FE. Overall, a good day out. Today I was dow...

Lake District - A More Traditional Set
Thanks Michael, SJ and Alan. I also rarely make it to the Lakes Alan, so I just had to make the most of my day there. Hope you get back soon. Cheers David

More from the new Pentax 55-300mm PLM lens...
Thanks guys. Karlo, it is like night and day. The PLM lens is much faster to focus and is a lot more fun than hunting around with the old lens. In my humble opinion, it is well worth buying.:)

These are great, 5,7 and 11 for me are the most interesting as I can see more 'faces' in these than the remainder of the set. However, all of them are very good, the only one I'm not sure of is number 10, I don't think the shallow focus works too well on this one. I'm always impressed by your ...

Great set. Think I prefer the all in focus shots, rather than the narrow depth of field ones. Reminds me of Edvard Munch's Scream paintings.

Thanks again all for thoughts and comments re these... Richard, yes the Munch "feel" was very much what I had in mind... David, thanks for kind words... know what you mean about no 10... that was one of the ones I shot with the Tilt/Shift, which I like for what it can do in terms of isolating planes...

Only just seen these - a lovely set of images; my sort of images. As per Richard, i prefer the all in focus shots as well. Nice work!

Dunham Massey Mono with Q-S1
There is strong contrast and deep shadows in them all, giving depth and solidity. Good gritty texture which suits the architectural elements. It all looks impressive for in-camera processing. The one with the boy is the best I think. That filter effect is very good...... Is this the start of...

Dunham Massey Mono with Q-S1
I've heard of barrel distortion but that old building has some crazy 'roof distortion' going on :) Excellent pics John! Did you take any other kit with you for this outing? I need to pluck up the courage to walk out of the house with just the Q-S1 instead of having my entire camera and lens co...

Film Street Stranger Portraits
Third one for me Alistair, it has something the others don't. Forgive me for saying, but I think 1,2 and 5 are just a tad out of focus? Regards David
