Despite my suggestion about the rusty rollers being made more use of its no.5 also for me as you have captured a beautiful foreground with lots of detail and a slightly lone tree against the changeable cloud sky.
I like no.4 for the inclusion of the rollers especially when viewed large. NB, everyones opinions will vary and that's what makes things interesting

Hello JeffG, once upon a time 1986, i lived in east Chalvey the older part. i loved the common walkways to Eaton college and on to Windsor with my pentax program A and nifty 50

If i may contribute Gareth, i would echo the comments above in general that the site is a bit busy.
some photos repeat in different categories. i know its early days and yet it is full to the brim.
I myself. would be commenting from a casual observers perspective and not in any way trained.
You also have photos for sale which i looked at, around four or five and in my humble opinion you much more superb saleable photos scattered around in flora and fauna for instance and other categories might i add like the shot of the clapped out vw beatle heading for a beach for surf fun

but having said all that, credit to your good self for making it happen and the best of luck with time on your side.

Love the peace with oneself and nature, it is spiritually rewarding

number 4, 5 and 16 for myself Gareth , in your day trip punk experience.
All you were short is a broken shattered shanks lavatory but number 16 comes pretty close
The lens is electric by the way

youtube is fantastic and I've a few favourites regarding photography and many more to discover.
im just too long in the tooth though, for comparisons or recommendations by chancers.
I find the people who blog and youtube channel who are genuinely passionate might love a like or subscription but they also love photography first and foremost and this usually shines through and many of the good ones shoot Nikon,Canon, Fuji, etc but i don't mind as they are sharing a wealth of knowledge regarding how they achieve some amazing photographs.
So there possibly is an opening for someone to shoot with Pentax on youtube channel and let the results speak
for themselves but just in a photographic way not solely about Pentax as such, that after all was only the tools they used

Hi Gareth, you really are nailing the shots as of the last year or so .
The improvement is night and day and is telling not just technically but artistically also.
love it and keep going as this is good
Best of luck Flan

A gimbal perhaps, i have even seen them mounted to mono pods and held effortlessly by the operator

Thanks pentaxian450. That’s very helpful for me at least. I presume this will work on the KIii also and the k70?

As Bertie has alluded to "back in the day" finances dictated
My set then was the A50mm 1.7 that came with my program A for the first couple of years followed by secondhand
the A28mm 2.8 and the A70 210mm purchased from the same shop in the space of 2 days
i thought i had everything that i needed i was 22 at this stage



I still have all my old kit and more
I now own a K1ii with with 28 105 and DFA 100 macro but would dearly love the set of primes DFA 21 and DFA 50 and my da*200 will cover the long end as i love that lens
I will get there somehow
