Last 'Old Food for my Film Pentaxes' test results
Thanks Folks ! Yes -- I was amazed at the Sharpness of the SMC Takumar 28mm f3.5 at FULL APERTURE on the Brentwood Catholic Cathedral shot -- good job I managed to jam my arm against the railings to hold it still for 1/15th Second. That was part of the Asahi Pentax Spotmatic-F set I was given by a...

Some recent fungus finds
Great selection, good compositions and selective focus - nice to see so many in their natural surroundings 8)

Physalis Foursome
All nicely done, I do prefer 4, both for the almost invisible yet present-behind-the-scenes plane of focus, and the wonderful near-monchrome blueness.

Birds in flight
The recent floods have brought hundreds of lapwings to the neighbourhood so I set out to take some shots with the K1 + 150-450mm zoom, all handheld. I haven't had much luck with birds in flight but being very skittish the birds flew round and around the field giving me the chance to have a go, both ...

A couple with the Q-S1

Foggy Rhoose
Nice, Gareth, my fave is the last one and well done for finding some good subjects. I love mist for atmospheric shots so this morning I hoped to get some with watery sun at the local deer park. Unfortunately there was a walking event on so the place was crawling with people and not a deer to be seen...

Christmas Tree Lights (abstracts)
Playing around with imaging the lights and decorations on our tree using K-50/ 100mm f2.8 macro WR/ tripod. Deliberately looking for abstract images mixing colour/light/bokeh/focus. Most of the images fall short of the optical viewfinder image due mainly I think to inability of sensor to captu...

That sunset a couple of evenings back
We realised there would be a spectacular sunset with about 15 minutes to spare so we rushed off to find a good vantage point above the trees. We were not disappointed. K1 with an F series 80-320mm.

That sunset a couple of evenings back
I rather like the last one, David, with just the hint of the solar disc peeking out of the hills, and the subdued colours in the sky.

Thank you. There is a whole series of them as it sinks and choosing one over another is quite hard.

My pick of 2019
Brilliant images, thank you for sharing. I'd love to know the acquisition and PP details behind 'October', the image is so beautifully vibrant and alive Edit: I looked up the image in your gallery - any PP details would be appreciated! Very little PP needed. the light was brilliant all I had to d...

Fast asleep (thankfully) - a hibernating queen wasp.
This is one of those rare opportunities that you don't turn down. I found this lady in a cardboard packing box in my workshop a couple of months ago. I put her carefully back to photograph later. Today, I found the time and assembled some gear. I put a series A 100mm dental macro onto a set of Pen...

One a Month 2019
davidtrout set the ball rolling, thought I'd tag along. I will admit that a lot of these shots or similar have been posted here on PU but, hey! My 2019 in 12 shots. January, Borovets, Bulgaria. After a nasty crash and quite a severe concussion I was banned from the piste so, I had time to wander ...

My twelve from 2019
Many thanks. We are trying not to let Mara limit our travels too much though some compromise is obviously needed - I think we might have been back to Japan, or perhaps elsewhere in Asia, otherwise but I don't think a fourteen hour flight is a good place for an infant :?

2019 review
Sorry to hear you haven’t been well Peter... Hope you’re feeling better soon... lots of joy in this set... really like the dog portraits, as ever... particularly the first one of Rio... lovely selective focus, and unusual, almost shy (but very beautiful) pose... wishing you a great year on all front...
