It looks very blue to me, did you use AWB? I find that it doesn't work very well early in the mornings. Also the foreground looks in focus but the buildings look a bit out of focus to me. I would also try cropping a bit from the bottom and making it a more panoramic view.

I am probably going to get a Lightning Trigger to use on my K5 to take pictures of storms at night with, and was wondering if anyone here has tried one? With a shutter lag of 92 milliseconds the K5 is pushing the envelope a bit for this device, so I would be very intereted in anyone elses experience with the K5 or other Pentax.

I personally have never found Jessops very easy to use.....

Am I alone in not having the faintest idea what you are talking about......

Every time I find one of those silica gel packs in packaging I just chuck it in the cupboard where I keep my lenses. I leave all lenses out of their cases too.

The image looks a touch out of focus to me? This type of shot can be quite difficult, especially as the backdrop of the building can be quite distracting. I'd think it might work better taken more face-on rather than at an angle, keeping the building symettrical behind the people. Also, as this is a shot of the people more than of the building, perhaps a more panoramic crop, say to the top of the central arch?

Beautiful shot, just love those eyes!

Thanks for the comments!

The FA 24-90 is a superb lens, albeit one that feels a bit cheap and plasticky. As far as PP goes, a lot of trial, error and advice from the web have led me to adopt the following method to get the best from images suffering from atmospheric haze.
I started with the RAW files in Lightroom, where I adjusted WB, reduced noise and applied a grad filter from the top to reduce exposure slightly and increase contrast. Then the images were exported to CS5. The images have then had a general levels adjustment, with the lower part of this adjustment erased by about 40% using a large soft-edged brush (a general levels adjustment often makes the bottom of the images too dark).. Then I made selective levels adjustments using feathered masks (between 20 and 60 pixels depending on the size of the area) on different parts of the images. I then used an unsharp mask at a large radius (40 pixels and amount about 30-50) , using a heavily feathered mask (about 100 pixels), on the middle and far parts of the image, which reduces haze by increasing contrast. A few of the images have also had the saturation of the blue channel reduced slightly in the distance, again using a heavily feathered mask, to get rid of a touch of the blue cast you always get from altitude. All these adjusrments need careful fiddling to get them to blend into each other. Sometimes I tweak the individual masks by erasing parts of them using a soft-edged eraser at various opacities.The whole process perhaps sounds tedious but it generally takes about 10 minutes per image. Finally they are sharpened conventionally using unsharp mask.

I've not posted anything here for a while, having been distracted somewhat by my other two cameras. Today I borrowed my wife's Kx, my K5 being away for repair. I like it! It helped having some good weather to try it out. I'm looking forward to getting the K5 back, but the Kx is a very able substitute!

The first shows K2 in the distance. All taken with my FA 24-90mm. Larger versions can be seen on my Flickr stream.

Mine fell off a while ago, it's in for repair under warranty at the moment. I took it to the Pentax Service Centre in Osaka, and they wanted to charge me sixty quid to fix it, which I thought pretty bad customer service. Mathers are getting it (and the wonky horizon indicator) fixed under warranty.
