Hi John
Welcome to the party. The forum is a great place to be with train loads of help from train loads of PENTAXIANS. There are not too many hills around Hinckley but if you want some reasonable landscapes try Bradgate Park ( not too far to travel) and open 24/7. Just be careful about parking at the "Old John" carpark because that is the one where the idiots seem to operate from.
It is also nice to welcome a Leics resident as there dont seem to be too many of us.
"Happy snapping" said the croc, I think.
Cheers
Ian

Hi John, its good to welcome someone from Leicestershire. As Ian says, there are not too many hills but there are some good waterways nearby; Trent Lock, Foxton Locks.

Having been reading for a while I thought I'd better take the plunge & join. I brought my K10d & kit lens a while ago & have since added a Sigma 70-300 & Pentax 540 flash. Most of my stuff is done in the garage as I like the control still life offers but I am trying to improve my landscapes. With this in mind I'll shortly be purchasing a tent & getting lost in some hills somewhere. I'll try to upload some shots & add inane drivel to various posts during this long fruitful union.
Remember: In the land of the blind the one eyed man is probably the only photographer!!
