Tim,

Lovely and crisp, especially No. 1. The lens has a good range, covering the 'gap' between the Pentax zooms. What are your first impressions of it?

I'll kick off the fortnight with this:

"All my love lies buried here"

Welcome Darryl!

C&C welcome

It did Alan,

But I didn't branch out into them for fear of being thought barking mad!

As for any new puns, I think I'm stumped...

Emma,

From strength to strength...

Dom,

You must have no space left on your walls! It's clearly a lovely part of the world.

Alan,

No - I twigged it!

Paul - thanks! Yes, I tried to book in, but the phone wasn't working for some reason...

Birdsville has another pub with a history of similar length. I chose to stay at the caravan park's on-site cabins though - much better!

Thank you Tim, Andrew and Will:

I thought about the contrail Tim, and will give that a look. Crop for the 2nd is easy, thank you for the tip. The vignette was motivated mainly by the blown sky. Must work out how to do HDR using a K10, without having photoshop...

Anything but the Royal now Andrew, as we can see! Unfortunately I didn't jump the wire - I should have.

Will - see above re commentary on the vignette, and lack of PS

Appreciate all of your comments gents - thank you
