spotted this little fella on a rainforest walk today
Was he doing a sponsored walk?

Nice shot Don, I would have said "well seen" but I dont really see how you could have missed him

I got my cashback yesterday (credited to my bank account) However I didnt get it all!

Either the cashback for my 50-135 will be credited seperately or Pentax have shortchanged me

Not bad for starters David, I would have opened up a bit more and lowered the ISO, nice shot for 1/60th though.

You do realise you've now been bitten by the bird shooting bug

Best place to shoot birds is near a feeder (RSPB and wildlife reserves are great for this)Snap them in the branches of nearby trees where they are sure to land before flitting to the feeders, watch out for branches that have a lot of droppings on them, odds on the branches above are regular perches.

I think I would have been more interested in the Graffiti is that something derogatory about Mussolini on the right of the third pic?

I did Dover Castle many years ago when I was also a member of EH. we learned of the tunnels underneath the cliffs but never imagined there was anything like this.

PS; is that you crawling through the pipe? IMHO you need your bumps feeling!

Hello Robbie and welcome to the forum

You cannot buy a new DSLR Pentax anywhere in Ireland it seems.
I was in Dublin a few weeks ago, I thought I'd check out the prices over there, couldn't find anywhere in Dublin that stocked Pentax, not DSLRs at least

The K20D feels so good in hand, really makes a D60 or 400D feel a bit fisher price.
Now that is a bit below the belt.......but I like it

Got a great buzz from seeing my name listed under 'Artist'.
Surely they have that wrong? I was alway lead to understand that the creator of a photographic image should be refered to as the "Author"
