Snapped these as we popped to Cardiff yesterday for a bite to eat. Again with the Pentax K3ii and FA 35mm. Finding the K3ii a great street camera as it's smaller than the K1, lighter and a bit more discreet, Other advantages are that it keeps the shutter count down on the main camera and if I drop it or it gets nicked then I'll panic less!

Cracking street shots here Gareth, my choice is the last one with the flowers even in B&W it works well.

As loadoftripe says, 'cracking street shots here Gareth...' My choice is the first one, lots of movement and trees and sky. I do like your use of B&W.

Interesting comment re. your use of the K3ii. I've just returned from staying with chums in Montrose for a couple of days and took my K3ii and used the DFA 31. Seriously pleased with the results. It's a great lens, plus, as you say, the K3ii is lighter and more discrete.

Be well, stay safe.
