A very nice and varied set. The colours in 1 are lovely, I also like the first Brean Sands image and the Pier shot. The sky looks a little off colour in the second Brean Sands shot, not sure if this intentional processing or if it was caused by the lighting conditions at the time?

Love these shots Drew, the only one I'm not sure about is the red guitar colour pop one. Some good feedback from the band too on their facebook page. 1 and 4 are my favourites.

2 and 4 are the ones for me too, I would be tempted to crop 2 at the bottom just a little and 4 would stand an overall increase in levels and the shadows lifting up a bit, but I like both of them.

Thanks Barrie, I won't confirm or deny your statement otherwise I'm at risk of another declaration of war on my opinions from a certain keyboard warrior who frequents these parts.

Actually I think this has as much to do with the lens used (DFA 100mm F2.8 Macro) as it does with the camera, but the K-5iis does reward with good quality glass and that lens is a cracker.

PS: Judging by the first shot it looks like you stayed at the Hilton.

Been up to Newcastle-Upon Tyne this Friday / Saturday on a business trip, then down to Staines in North Yorkshire this afternoon. Needless to say the cameras went with me! Here are three quite different images I managed to grab on the trip, all with the K-5iis.

By multi exposures do you mean auto bracketed images? If so there should be no difference in these shots to any other shots taken, except the exposure setting would vary on each one. The White Balance (the other likely cause if it's not your Computer) should not vary.

It would be helpful to post the exact settings on your camera when taking these shots, also post an example image with the EXIF data.

In which program do they look pink on your PC?

I suspect this may be a colour profile issue on the computer rather than an issue with the camera.

What make / model of PC is it?

MC4 without glass received in tip top condition, thank you Darren, it works perfectly with my DFA 100mm Macro WR lens!

The squirrel is very good Nigel, nice composition, good exposure and sharp. You could maybe bring the levels up a bit, but that aside it's an excellent image.

I don't think the duck shot works so well, there's too much going on and nowhere in particular for the eye to settle.
