Seen in the Asahi Pentax Photography magazine (the forerunner of our late lamented magazine), Vol 1, No. 2, c. 1971 (the magazine has no date but it is clearly after the release of the ES and prior to the release of the ESII).

It is an illusion that photos are made with the camera… they are made with the eye, heart and head. Henri Cartier-Bresson
Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Ha ha - YES Folks, it's ME HIMSELF !! I think I got an Asahi Pentax 'helical Extension tube' which I still have - I have done quite well out of the Club magazine over the years - I have the COMPLETE set of the magazine -- most in the loft but some in the bedroom.
Been a member of Pentax Club since the Ron Spillman era! Got COMPUTERISED at last - DIGITISED?

Well done Peter

If it was in 1971 it was one year before my birth

Great facial expressions on the players faces
K10D, K5 plus plenty of clueless enthusiasm.
