Yup, its easy to see why you felt the need to share that one - lovely piece of work - I might pay money for it myself - I feel a Japanese influence, Shibusa inspired calligraphy perhaps
Pentax pour des images riches en détails!

The framing isn't very imaginative and there's nothing to lead the eye. A lot of the highlights have been blown and detail lost in the shadows. I presume this was done with a number four brush due to the lack of sharpness but it lends itself to a dreamy OOF effect that works well.
I got Smeggy's spirit level and found the framing to be a degree out but some may like that jaunty angle. Haha
Cool picture

Sometimes I'm serious and sometimes not, but I consider sarcasm an artform. Which is it today?

That's really good...much better than I could have done. Initially, reading your sentence John, I thought it was your daughter that had painted a picture of your venerable old Pentax 'Paul Jones'...well each to their own and all that..then i re-read it and realised what you meant..well it is getting a bit late..
No, but it is really arty.

Don't worry! Nigel will fix it with his Super HDR machine!

Excellent picture ... but John R's scanner needs some work and calibration - the distortion is awful!

It does actually look like the type of cartoon representation ad agencies and graphic artists produce when they don't want to seem too serious.

It would make a great t-shirt. PUG logo perhaps?
Great fun and I like it. K.

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.

She researched the image herself, and pretty good it is too! Well done Jennifer!
