Hi all

Apologies to you all and to pentaxuser.com, I haven't been visiting the site for approx. 2 months, usual stuff, busy life etc. I managed to get out on Father's day and shoot some pics in 2 locations; Cromford Vintage Car Show and Crich Tramway Museum. Here are some shots, all K3 and DA*50-135, which is my 'go to' combination for selective focus.

1. Continental GT

Nice selection. All tight crops, so concentrated on a specific point well.

I like what you achieved here David, was that an original continental GT or one of the new ones (retro)?
C&C welcome.

Very selective focus, as you say, David. Is there a hair selectively out of focus on the tram driver's arm? But seriously, good to see you back and with shots of your customary sky-high technical quality and interest.

Hi Don, it's one of the new (retro) ones I believe, made in India. I think it's about 3 years old.

Thanks for the feedback on my pics.

Strong, thoughtful, detailed compositions David as per... big fan of 7 too, but there's precision and a strong pov all the way through the set...

Best
