This is probably the wrong place to post any work, but as a 'newbie', I might just get away with it this once...
Trial shot taken with my K10D and a 'borrowed' Sigma 50-500mm (handheld), just outside a camera shop in San Francisco in 2009

Grips, 'pods, AF adapter and more bags than a Tesco checkout...

Clear and sharp you must have arms like legs to hand hold that lens, I have enough trouble with my 300mm, think I need to do some weight training

Just registered after being a 'troll' for some years. Had a K10 for quite a while and just upgraded to a K5. Accumulated a few lenses/bits over the years - some new, others hand-me-downs and one or two from a certain auction site. I've just bought a set of old K-mount macro bellows and am having fun learning how to use them.
I've also done a couple of night-school courses for Photoshop and would consider myself to have basic ability with that, although not necessarily on specific photography applications.
Originally a Brummie but now based in Devon, there are some great opportunities for loading up a camera bag (yes, have several, it really can be an addiction!) and going for a walk - which I ought to do more often!
I know where most of the buttons are on the camera, just want to learn which one is for "Take great picture"!
Hope I can bring something to the forum occasionally, as it's answered a lot of my queries in the past.
