If you give Chris a ring he'll be able to advise you as to current stock situation.

The thumbnails didn't look enticing, but actually the images themselves show impressive sharpness.

We did get to Martin Mere earlier on. I was shooting with the K-5 and 55-300mm and 43mm lenses, both with and without the 1.4x converter.






















All in all, a productive day. I'm very happy with the 1.4x converter with various lenses.

Pentax used to have an 18-200mm, but that was replaced by the excellent 18-250mm. That lens in its turn has been replaced by the current 18-270mm.

SDM and DC lenses are virtually silent. The 55-300mm is quite noisy.

Yes, totally agree. Manchester Art Gallery also has a magnificent collection on display.

That must mean the iPad measures 9 by 6 Vic......

I think we've pretty much decided on Martin Mere for tomorrow. Family, cameras, food and ducks, what more could we ask for?

I chose the ISO according to the overall situation. So for the very low light shots I chose a very high ISO, making sure by doing this that the noise structure on all the shots was at least the same for that batch.

Variable noise levels I find more disturbing.

The idea was for the groom's best men to look like tough bodyguards, but the guys were just too easy going by nature to be convincing at that. So this was the best take and I liked the sense of them moving towards us anyway. This was from Saturday's wedding shoot. 18-135mm.



Nicola had plenty of style, red hair, red dress, and she carried it off with ease. Very bubbly and happy to pose. This is from the evening, where I wandered around shooting available light candids with the 43mm f/1.9. Any ISO it took to make the images, lots of coloured light and all more spontaneous than the day shots. Fun time for the photographer too!
