I’m a life-long photo enthusiast & absolute beginner to DSLR. After labouring for many months through magazine & internet reviews I realised that Pentax in the form of the K7 was the right camera for me. These last few weeks have revitalised my passion for capturing the unique and the ordinary moments in time. Thankyou Pentax for providing the tools I need.
Thankyou to Szgabor, Bobbinalorry, nonur, pauljay, thoughton, Cliff-P, Haworth, davidtrout, bwlchmawr, coker, alfpics & senn who have kindly shared their thoughts on recent uploads to my portfolio. Hope to reply soon. I’m sure there’s much more to learn and will always appreciate comments and criticism.
Noel

Best Wishes, Noel
