Bill, first at all, welcome to the forum.

The remote control works perfectly as all Pentax devices, and you will find that it is a very necessary element.

Buy it with closed eyes, it worth any buck you pay for. And the only recommendation: be careful, don’t lose it (size!).







Best regards.

This is an interesting approach to a not very hard explored art area.

I like your work Lilly.

Personally I think the limit is in your own (in each of us). In this way, I feel you must go so far away the line until you are satisfied with your creation; that you feel you arrived where you wanted go.

But also, I believe there exists a risk of falling in a vulgarity or pretentiousness or tawdriness (don´t find the correct word, “cursilería” in sp) using improperly the PS tools. How many times using an innovative element you developed an idea just for discover some months later you find the same thing everywhere (you buy an expensive and exclusive dress and discover in the party another girl with the same one). Your initial image always will be exclusive, but think that PS filters are in the public domain…

An image for help explain:




Do you recognize the PS filter? Yes? Well, good bye creation…

Lilly, follow experimenting with this. You are in the correct track…


Best regards.

Scroll the browser (with the scrolling bar) until the image horizon is aligned with the window border.

Better an mage for help my explanation:





Chris, I like your image just as is.

The Opera House is just another building of Sidney city. I think you will give the Opera more relevance because in some way is the symbol of Sydney. The image perspective is making justice with the size of all the city buildings.

Consider you have in the photography three heavy weighting elements competing for the sight –the very sharp and good healthy Cu´s; Sydney city and the boat wake- giving preference to one of this elements, will detracts the others. As actually the image is, I can see a good balance of all the mentioned elements.

For me is a very good image!


Best regards.

Please need confirmation!

Is true that the first entrant in the Weekly Competition No 17 “The Mark of Man” wins a kit of 5 Pentax lenses to be elected by the winner, and for the second entrant a travel with all the costs paid for 15 days (2 persons) to El Cairo, Egypt for photography the Egyptian pyramids? (j a j).

Yes, 49 photos in 3 hours and 5 minutes flight! Some of them resulted in very nice mountain landscapes (like to see someone’s?).

Certainly the places where I fly have not the conflictive air traffic as in South England where you fly. Also my fly altitudes (Fly Level) are very bellow the commercial airways ones (in this mountainous area the minimal airway FL is 24,000 feet). My flight altitudes in the mountain rarely exceed 10,000 feet. The other aircraft that shares this airspace is a helicopter (also from the government as the one I fly) and we are always in VHF radio communication. So I have some free and safe time for photography…


Best regards.

Hi Chris,

I would like to have a sight and the reactions you mention, but I have just the same kind all human have.

For achieve my challenge, yesterday I did 49 shots in flight (of course not all for this purpose) but 9 with the intention to catch the prop in the desired location. When shot I don´t see where demon the prop is, so it is a hazard question…

Here is one of the failed shots, bat look what nice clouds I get in return…




At 1/500s you can see in the image more or less a 1/8 circle occupied by the prop pattern, so with a little patience, the challenge really is not so difficult.


Best regards.
