No more snow here thank goodness. Our street doesn't get gritted so it is now sheet ice. I have salted our driveway and the footpath, but can't do the entire street .

Could be exciting in the morning .

The wind chill today was nasty, and going to be worse tomorrow apparently.

Greece and Bulgaria look like the places to be at the moment.

Thaw due at the weekend. Maybe.

I'm with David and like the original the most. It is subtle and has the feel of a watercolour.

Shags and cormorants are the same family. Sometimes they are called shags in one part of the world and a cormorant in another - shags have crests, cormorants don't. In theory. And only in the breeding season.

I still think it's a shag - there is no white throat marking, and the beak marking is more like a shag.

Where's Daniel when you need him?

It took my husband another hour to get home. I hate snow. Hopefully it, and the frozen rain, which I hate even more than snow, will be gone tomorrow, and we'll just have cold.
Snow is no good for skating. Wrecks the surface, and stops the build up.

I'd have said a shag personally. I don't see any white on it, and the beak looks more shag like.

My husband has been on his way home for nearly 2 and half hours now. Normally it takes him just over an hour. I phoned 20 minutes ago to see where he was - about 10 minutes away on a normal day, but today having had snow we now have ice rain, so driving is definitely not fun.

I'm shocked.

I thought the F had been discontinued.

I really can't see why the O-RC1 would work with a K-5 but not a K20D when the F works with the K-5.

I know it has extra buttons - those are for the likes of the W90 though.

Maybe you should go for a cheap generic one from e-bay though. Especially if waterproofing isn't important.

I'm sure it will. Since the non waterproof version works with most Pentax cameras, including the K-5, I can't see why the new waterproof version wouldn't work with older Pentax models.
