No.2 for me, the inside of the High Level Bridge. Love the repeating patterns. I like the splash of red of the figure taken from the dark alleyway with The Sage in the background.

Oh yes there are bad images Gareth. It's just I try to keep them hidden from public gaze.

At times like this I begin to worry about Aliengrove's AVATAR.

These are terrific pictures of the North Wales slate quarry industry Andrew. But more than being great photos, they are also a valuable record of a past industry seen in its dying state.
Pictorially all these three sets of images are first class and well worth looking at again and again.

Thanks Jonathan. I'll send them an image when my e-mail gets fixed. Can't use it at the moment for technical reasons that are way beyond me.

This cloud formation was over Durham two or three weeks ago. Does anyone know what causes those crater-like shapes? K10+DA* 16-50mm lens

Great pictures Alan, they demonstrate just how far you can push the K5 - in terms of long lenses and high ISO.

I just went from a K10 to a K5. The K5 has better image quality, less noise espcially at higher ISO ratings and faster focusing. The frames per second rate is higher too but more importantly you can shoot longer bursts before the buffer locks up.
Ergonomically I've always found all Pentax cameras to be superb and the K5 is no different. Once you become accustomed to the new positioning of the buttons they're fine. Its like getting into a new car, you soon get the feel of everything.
I wondered about the smaller size after the chunky size of the K10/K20 but once I got the lens on I hardly noticed any difference.
Like Gwyn I have to do much less work in Photoshop on images from the K5 than the K10.

PS I still have a K10 (the other went in part-ex) and it will still get plenty of use.
