Took a stroll down to Endcliffe Park in Sheffield tonight with the K5 and Tamron f2.8 28-75mm as the circus is in town.

No particular photo merit intended, just wanted to test the K5+Tammy out in low light.

K5 set to manual settings and Tammy to manual focus, slight exposure adjustments in PSE otherwise as out of camera.

Wow! A circus, but no people Any one of these could be used as a cover for a book by Stephen King or Dean R. Koontz etc. Really spooky

Same here. I'd crop it off rather than spot fix it though

I'm getting more into this type of aspect ratio.

It doesn't always work, but there's often a lot of redundant sky and foreground in some shots.
