Great photo, that nobody commented on it!
And thank you for your explanation, did you change things over the years?

The soft colours are really appealing and i like the framing.
Maybe you've up your photoshop skills and can you remove the chain on his neck, because it's so bright and shiny it ask for attention that should go to the dog IMHO.

Spectacular conditions, maybe you get them again this year

I like the soft light in your photos it's just that the first and last doesn't have a focus point that makes the photo interesting.
The second photo with the tree is much better in that expect, maybe remove a bit from the bottom so that more attention is on the tree because the hill is quite overpowering.

The fist question is what i've been saying all the time, that primes are different then zoom lenses so that it isn't a matter of do you need a prime but more do you want a prime.

If you've a 16-45 i see no need to buy a DAl35 besides the extra stop that El Dingo says.

For ban for bucks the DAL35 seems to be a very good offer but it lack some features i want so a DA lens is better for me at least.

yes of course but do you need that?
And then a 50mm f/1.7 might be better.

This video might be helpful to see the difference and see how lightroom works together with photoshop.

Need to find a new quote now

This one better?

Topics like these https://www.pentaxuser.com/forum/topic/celtic-connections--glasgow-23359

Could also be placed in the Local Groups and Meetings if they extend the scope of that section a little bit, something like Local Groups and day outs or something like that?

Kris also has it there, so am i the only one that has EV compensation on the front wheel?
I used that a lot more with Av to properly expose a photo because ISO has no effect on that in Av and you can access the ISO the same as in any other mode by pressing the OK button.

It doesn't mean a thing, just trying to find ways to irritate

When shooting models the K10D (very clean low ISO photos) would be the best for action the K5 (higher ISO better AF)

Yes something like that.
Bargains never last long so if you look at the two last pages you would have all the current bargains covert.
It's at least better then having to find the bargain topics in the general chat thread

Traders aren't allowed to post here for themselves and if a member have things to sell they have the classified section all alone for them.

Deleting post would be a problem, only admins can do that better to watch at the newest topic and let the older ones die slowly into history.
