Door Art
I'm familiar with these beautiful doors in Funchal (not sure if it's a custom elsewhere). I really like the framing and vibrant colours (I often frame too tight on the doorway for some reason) stepping back a bit has provided context around the door.

Rhoose Beach ... again!
Thanks all 8) Excellent video Gareth. The mike is a lot better than the original. I never knew that you stood in so much water. Yes, audio is much better now 8) The gimbal I have is only a 2 way so when I walk it doesn't correct the up and down movement so that's my next thing to sort. I may not...

Rhoose Beach ... again!
That last comment made me chuckle! I've been in deeper before now as the tide on another beach came in around me and cut me off. Brown pants moment crossing that water back to safety!

Dew ball and Bokeh
All that light moving around, and that precise little point of focus - a captivating image.

Dew ball and Bokeh
Thank you for the kind comments :D It took 3 shots, this being the best one :!: My success rate with this type of shot has improved significantly since I've started using LiveView - the white outline that appears on the in focus area(s) has proved to be significantly more accurate than my eyesi...

Yorkshire Abstracts
Thanks Sry, Lenny and Bill. It was a great place to visit but the site is huge and I probably barely scratched the surface. Might have to go back again sometime. David

In the garden today
An idle afternoon in the garden with the K1 + 100mm macro, all hand held manual focus:

In the garden today
On the evidence offered, I would dispute your assertion that it was an "idle afternoon". Great photos; I specially like the bees. I had some black wild bees hovering around me yesterday as I cut back some ivy from a wall. I think they were gathering from the remains of the ivy flowers.

Dew drops on the lawn
These don't attempt to meet Lennybloke's standards since it's an inferior lens - (if you can call the A series 50mm f2.8 macro 'inferior'). The droplets here were really tiny, less than 2mm as can be seen from the size of the blades of grass, so I put a 21mm Jessop's extension tube, with 'A' con...

Broken Down
For those who like steam. It has been a while since I have used my camera. So today, I dusted of my K3, and threw it onto the back seat of the car. While out driving, we came across this traction engine, it had just died. Not a happy driver of the unit, but I think they look pretty cool. I love t...

Hurrah for colour!
With all the negativity around Pentax tracking focus I had reservations about how today would work out, with the K1 + DFA* 70-200 f2.8. I needn't have worried! Here is a selection; first the lambs to the slaughter: And now for the rest:

Sandwood Bay
Hi all... every year I try to put a bit of time aside and do a trip for Pentax as part of the Ambassador thing I do for them. In previous years I've been to the Westfjords in Iceland with Matt Emmett, and last year on my own to Barra and Vatersay in the Outer Hebrides. This year, towards the end o...

A fantastic set of stunning images Bill. Not long back from the west coast of Scotland, and looking at these images makes me want to go right back now!

Impressionism
Works a treat. I'd crop the top to take away the out of focus lily pads but as I say , works a treat.

Saturday selection
Many thanks for the comments. Always appreciated. I had the K1 with a 24-90mm for grab shots but mainly used the Z with the 150mm f/2.8 which has always been a faultless combo, specifically for wiping out background clutter. I quite liked zooming with my feet. Saturday was really cold with a 2 to...

Minimalist Green
Really, really good. Definitely minimalism, but the soft and flowing sort rather than hard and angular. Be honest, though - since the grass was blowing in the breeze (a) how many shots did it take to get the point of focus just right; (b) did you visualise this first or was it one of those "Oooh,...
