But it shows that Pentax are now putting some effort into marketing and playing the same games as Kanikon, so hopefully the pay-off will be that editors and reviewers come to see Pentax as worthy of the same consideration as other brands.

Interesting article on ephotozine http://www.ephotozine.com/article/Motorsport-challenge-with-the-Pentax-K10D-1 where they used the K10D on an assignment. Nice to see the camera getting coverage like this.

Musically it was a cracking weekend, the most consistent of the 4 Maryport festivals I've attended. Never The Bride do some terrific covers, especially Zeps "Whole Lotta Love".
Zach, I agree about the use of fill-in flash. I'm trying to capture the effect of being on stage, so why lose that? Here's one from a couple of years ago:-
I ought to dig out the original RAW file as I think I could do a better job of processing it now.

Be careful what you write, Nikki may read it!

Roger Daltry apparently said she has the best female rock voice since Janice Joplin (and she does a neat line in mike-stand abuse!)
And there were scary men too! This is Harper (from Australia) who introduced the didgereedoo to the blues

I think I may have employed a little more PS work than Mr Sherwen

Liam,
Gosh, thanks for the kind words. Actually after looking at the gallery put up by the "official" event photographer http://www.briansherwen.co.uk/portfolio.asp?cat=37 I thought mine stood up quite well. But then I did have the benefit of a better camera!

Another picture from the Maryport blues festival, this one not featuring a controversial guitar, but a very scary lady, Nikki Lamborn of Never the Bride. I think her, um, personality, comes across in this picture.

I second that recommendation - Scott Kelby doesn't try and cover everything but concentrates on what a photographer needs to achieve with PSE.

All fair points which I can't find anything to disagree upon.

Nice images. What lights are you using with the cube?
