Dark Floral, another spoon of Marmite :)
thanks for comments and looking. Still getting to grips with this lens in terms of subject matter, find the 1meter min focus distance a bit of a bind but love the subject seperation that can be had if you get it right. The rose and the red pod appear to have a 3 dimensional look for me.

Modern Rail Traction
That brings back memories John.... I can't recognise me among those boys with their Ian Allan ABCs but I reckon that grimy loco pulling out of the station with a Scottish bound express is a V2. It must have been a Heaton or Gateshead based loco, not an Edinburgh Haymarket or St Margarets based one ...

British Gt Donington Park 2020
Thanks for the comments. Good action shots, particularly No.2 but I also like the human interest content. David I like the human aspect as well, unfortunately with current restrictions and paddock area being closed off there was limited opportunity to capture these. Fingers crossed we're back t...

Fast Flowers
Both images at f1.4 with the Samyang 35mm - the focus plane is really limited but it really can work well if you nail it - I think I've managed it on one, not sure about the other... 8)

The first is great! The 2nd could have been superb if it had a smidge more in focus but both very nice 8)

Avoiding the summer crowds in Cornwall
Nice. The prehistoric promontory Fort in No. 1 particularly catches this archaeologist's eye. Do you know which one it is? K. It is Pentire Point, a promontory of National Trust land just above Polzeath (which you see on the second pano which was on the walk back to the car looking west). The Rum...

I remember back in the day taking the camera meter reading off the back of my hand or the grey card. Would this work with modern kit, I think it would. Of course the hand/grey card had to be in ambient light.

Carriers
Interesting to see the two versions of the picture. To me, they are quite different pictures, not different versions of the same. The original says 'Carriers in Portsmouth harbour', with the eye drawn to the carriers. The modified picture says 'Dockyard with big ships alongside', with the eye drawn ...

Its imaging can be further improved by applying the K-1's in-camera lens corrections. (I'm unsure whether they will work with the older film era lenses - can anyone confirm this?) Lens corrections are available for some of the film era lenses. The three FA LTD lenses plus the FA* 24mm f2 and FA* ...

Agree with the fish similarity Don. It's native camo appears to be simulating a leaf? Good focus on the eye. Best regards

Boats in Barry, the Old Harbour
All with the Pentax K1. The first with the Pentax HD D FA 24-70mm and the others with the Irix 15mm. Processed all in mono as the light was poor and I found I felt the subjects suited a mono finish over colour. 1. by , on Flickr 2. by , on Flickr 3. Slightly less moody processin...

Dragonflies, Whisby Nature Park
Just got back from a week in Lincoln, these were taken on a visit to Whisby Nature Park, armed with my K5 and 100mm Macro, no more than 15minutes in and I came across an Emperor sunning itself and sods law the K5 wouldn't fire :roll:, turned it off and on again, removed and refitted the lens all to ...

A bit of Bokeh
As said above, the second image offers some pretty funky bokeh (which is good). The tiny plane of focus works well on the whole set, but the first image really zeroes in on it, with a beautiful background to boot.

The Foreland Rocks
I finally made it with my Pentax this August, the seemingly epic journey along the shore from South Beach in Studland to the Old Harry Rocks. There is a sense of awe and achievement upon safe arrival which I suppose gives a small taste of what adventurers and explorers must experience. The timin...

The Foreland Rocks
Fair play Nigel, not sure i would be that brave, having ended up knee deep in mud in the past . Well worth it though, excellent images and possibly quite rare due to the effort needed. good to have you back.

The Foreland Rocks
I like 3 and 6 8) I've been caught before with the tide and shot some rocks out at sea and when I turned around I was stood on an island and the sea had comes in around the sides and I had to wade back to land with camera on tripod! Not something I want to do again!
