Thanks again, everyone. I do wish I'd had a little more time... Pity it's so far from home.
Best wishes,

Andrew

They're all very evocative and convey a sense of a place lost in time. I'm glad you made the backbreaking effort to cart that old tank of a camera plus lens out there Andrew it's paid off with lovely quality. The clouds and well balanced exposures really make the shots.

Your trademark centralised manner of composition adds a documentary tone to them, as opposed to a classic landscape layout, and that is no bad thing, adding to the character.

C,E and I are the best for me. Thanks for showing such a distinctive set of this interesting place.

Thanks again, lads. Your kind words mean a lot to me.

Yes, Nigel, I'm glad I had the K5. I know the future is likely to be mirror-less, but at the moment, nothing beats the modern DSLR for handling, ease of use and reliable results. Just so long as one is in reach of personal transport.

We're off to North Wales tomorrow and I'm taking my old K100D with a Pentax "M" 28mm 3.5. 6mp with manual focus and exposure. And you can't get much more basic than that.
Best wishes,

Andrew
