Thank you for your comments; much appreciated.

And Algi, on this occasion - no tripod; just a big Pentax!

There is also a small thing called the New Forest on the way should you go on the faster roads...

The image does suit both, but for me its the colour version - adds texture I feel!

Thanks Rob - you are right; cultivated yet relatively unspoilt. There was one modern 'power' windmill tucked away on the hillside (and only a small one at that), but otherwise turbine and photovoltaic free!

Actually a walk from Woodingdean to Lewes and back along the Downs on Friday and took a few snaps. Rather hazy and a bit muggy with sun breaking through, and eventually rather warm!;

Excellent Gareth! A good combo in your hands by the looks of it - all are good photos IMO!

Thanks Andy, Karlo, John, Will, Nigel, Stosser, Philip, Peter, Serge for thoughts/comments on these...

Andy, I find shutter speed tends to vary with these depending on how fast any specific wave is breaking; parts of a second either way can make quite a big difference to the wave forms, but with these I was around half or second or so, or just under...

Thanks for the info!

the 1.4x converter works with the Tamron 70-200 and relays the focal length info correctly, but does show some vignetting. I haven't done a conclusive test to check all focal lengths

Think the prices are good Gareth, I would have snapped up the 50-135 but just don't have the spare cash

Likewise, but I bought one for considerably more last year! Good luck - the 50-135 is a cracking lens.

Perhaps everyone is moving up to full-frame
