These looked a bit dark on my iPad so adjusted them again in photo gene which has blown out some highlights and maybe lost a bit of sharpness.

I was also hand holding the body with the 400mm attached having forgot my monopod so maybe a little camera shake.

Will have another go before the months out, see if I can improve and spend a little more time...

I think this is possibly better...

The camera phone and particularly the iphone has been the disruptive technology photography has needed. What's needed now is a dslr that builds in a phone OS similar to the Samsung galaxy camera. Why its so difficult to get images from an slr in 2013 to social networking sites i don't know.

i welcome the day i can insert a sim card into a dslr preferably an ff Pentax body...

Having looked at it again I like it even more. Has anyone tried photographing a woman looking dishevelled like this. I think it would take some convincing.

Another shot of the plane, sorry I don't know the name of the plane, not really my speciality

Its only down the road from me and this is the first time I have actually been whilst the seals have been there. I was amazed at how many there was and how close to the fenced off footpath too.

These where shot with the 400mm bit I could have got away with the 50-135mm they where that close.

Went to Donna Nook in Lincolnshire today to photo the annual seal invasion and got a little treat too.

I like it and given the location and subject I think not portrays the subject perfectly. I also like it's not a set up and literally shot live which is difficult when not working with models. I would like to see the full size version.

DNG is an industry standard PEF could get dumped very easily by Ricoh...

The noise in the whites looks better on the k-3 but the noise in the shadow to the right hand vertical corner looks worse on the k-3

Interesting...
