These are very good indeed and I like the variety in the collection, however I think #1 is the weakest of the set, there's an unfortunate halo round the dominant tree. Overall though its a very satisfying set of artistic images.

I love this set Andrew with my favourites being the gnarled wood shots, the seaweed on that beatifully textured sand, the street scene of the couple relaxing at a pavement cafe and of course, the Ciroen which I would probably keep in its oringial form.
As for the MX-1 I've never used one (although I've seen Barrie Forbes' which now seems to have defected to David Storm. For street photography I like my blue K30 which is light and has never yet upset an unsuspecting target

Love the details in these shots, and image quality of the whole set. Clearly taken on a Pentax lens of whatever model. As for colour popping, why is it sneered at these days. At one time it was considered clever. I reckon there are times when it can be used to good effect.
I've visited many of the heritage railways but as yet not this one. One day maybe.

This is a set of images of astounding quality Alan. You've captured the varied aspects to this epic event to perfection. Its hard to pick out favourites, there isn't a weak one in the whole set. And I like the fact you've identified each of the ships to accurately document The Tall Ships.
If this is going to be an annual event then I must get there next year.

A delightful set. Doesn't the city suit monochrome?
Delightful is the word I would use as well. These are sheer delight.
Paris does suit black and white, especially in the less visited older areas and the wonderful cemeteries but its also magnificent in colour (La Defense for instance).

Another wonderful set from your Eastern Med. holiday David. Incidentally I don't dislike cats, than can be very entertaining.

That's a lovey selection, expertly photographed. I'm sure you have many more beauties from Santorini in your portfolio. Did you only have one camera body with you and no back up? I couldn't do that. bugger the weight
David

PS I've just spotted your earlier post with the cats. You obviously also had the K5ll with you.
