Don't start about the mangling of English grammar and spelling or I'll go off on one about the common misuse of the apostrophe on PUF.
I have to keep reminding myself that PUF is a photography forum and not an English lesson.
David

PS: I'm not getting at the many members of PUF for whom English is not the first language, I have nothing but respect for the way they clearly express themselves.

Still quite a lot of red squirrels this far north Carl. Ask Ken (Beginner).
Excellent photos Alan. I wonder if it would have been so keen to chew on my new blue K30.

Apocalyptic is the word I would chose too Jon. That final image is completely awe inspiring.

Without checking my list I must say that table of mountain heights for GB is completely misleading. Sgurr Dhomhnuill is not even in the top 50 of Scottish peaks, let alone the whole of the UK.
Carn Eige, which it lists as #2 to Ben Nevis is certainly the highest peak north of the Great Glen but only just makes the top 12 for the country as a whole. Ben MacDhui in the Cairngorms is Scotland's, and therefore also Britain's, second highest mountain.

I stand corrected. The one I was thinking is Sgorr Dhonuill, a top on Beinn a' Beithir which is at the start of Glen Coe near Ballachulish. Its spelt slightly differently to the Corbet in Ardgour of very similar name and it still translates as Donald's Peak. My list of Munroes, and their pronunciations, of course doesn't include the Ardgour peak because its a Corbet (2,500-3,000 feet). I do wonder though whether the pronunciation of the two peaks is similar.

Sgor ghawil (according to my list of Scottish Munroes) but that doen't seem much help with the pronunciation. Its part of the mountain called Beinn a' Bheithir (Bin Vair)which is more easy to get the tongue round. Lovely set of photos from a dramatic landscape.

Good variety there Ted. I especially like your two Worcester pictures, the rain shot and the beach scene.

The photo of the guy sitting on the steps and using his mobile phone is the best for me. It tells a story of modern urban life and captures that illusive 'decisive moment' identified by HCB. The man sitting on the seat surrounded by bags also suggests a story line - that of a bored and put upon married man waiting patiently for his wife. Some of the other shots are technically fine but seem to be lacking a story line. The best street photographs involve humour, tension or emotional content or a striking juxtaposition. Unlike several of the other commentators I find the girl with the ice cream the least interesting.
These are all in black and white and that's ok. But
there seems to be a common myth that street photography should always be in mono. Try it in colour as well Dave. Sometimes the colour becomes part of the story.

They sold 100 within minutes during the afternoon programme and another 340 in the evening slot, as Jeeess says. The presenter and a guy from Pentax did a fantastic job plugging the virtues of Pentax cameras, particularly image quality and ergonomics.
It must have given the brand a fantastic marketting boost.
