I was going to suggest Windows photo gallery to you
I use PSE 6 for organising my photos, just because it's what I use for processing them also, but I did look at the Microsoft gallery too.

A Bigma for landscapes? is that to save on bus faresand surprisingly, for landscapes
No - I like to zoom in a parts of a landscape, to get the tonal differences in mountains for instance, or to isolate one aspect of a landscape - it works really well for that sort of thing. I am no so keen on the 10-20 for landscapes to be honest, I feel it doesn't do the width justice, I'd rather make a panorama to get the broader view. (the Bigma can be used for that too!

Calumet NL don't stock Pentax or anything for Pentax. Sounds like Calumet UK could be going the same way:

For aircraft where you will almost always be at the long end I'd go for the Pentax DA* 300mm over the Bigma. When it comes out you could add the new SDM TC.
The Bigma is great for wildlife, and surprisingly, for landscapes, where the zoom is more useful. A sturdy monopod or tripod would be essential with the Bigma, as it is heavy. I use it without most of the time but sometime a tripod is essential (for landscapes for instance).

I agree with Hefty. The background is very busy and bright which detracts from what is otherwise a nice photo.
As for longing for spring I fear you have a long wait, unless it comes extra early to Bucks. I'm just looking at places to go for a bit of sun in February.

No entry from me (again) this week, I'm only just thawing out from my central heating disaster, and have a back log of assignments from my course
You may not have many entries David but there are some real crackers in there!
