Nice image Gareth and nice to hear you have picked up your camera. You capture such beautiful landscape and seascape images. Don't stop believing and I truly hope you continue to capture and to post great images.
Best wishes

Nice one Gareth....!! Be glad when I receive my K1 back, and can get out there....!
Like to see some Pentax users using filters... Still not sorted my DFA 15-30 to use them....lol
Pictures on here. I feel dont have to be perfect. Not a lot wrong with this one..! It's good to share ideas or problems someone is having.. Set ups the like.

Quite evocative, Gareth, beautiful tones going on there, too. I like that there's nothing immediately spectacular to the image - yet there's a definite rumble to be felt underneath.

Yes, I agree with Sry. The viewer is gently placed in the scene and is invited to 'experience' it. A very successful 'revival'.

I like this shot Gareth, I enjoy a walk along a sea shore when the weather isn't too good and the beach is deserted. I can actually hear the sea from your image.

I actually prefer the colour image - I like the hint of warmth in the tones and the gentle yellowy/bronze highlights on the rocks and waves. The top left of the B&W shot was a bit distracting for me, too graduated compared the beautifully even tones of the rest of the image

Personally I like the dark and brooding clouds in the black and white version. I get the sense of a storm coming in.

This image is called Revival as I sort of lost my mojo and haven't picked up the camera in over a month. Had to force myself to get out and even though it was a quick half hour from the front door, shoot the image and get back home, it felt good and rekindled the romance of taking images once again.
It's not perfect and I thought twice about posting it but for me it was a good positive step to getting back on the photo bandwagon.
