These are cracking shots, 31 million light years....fascinating stuff. Hard work staying out in the cold and late, I like my bed too much! Well done.

The first one is my favourite, all excellent of course.

Whoops, I can't edit so just to put it correct, this was tested on a K1 not KP.

Today's walk down to Bovisand Beach, with the K1 mkII and a 50-200 DA ED WR in Cropped mode, f11 ISO 200;
I thought I would take this old lens out for a test on the KP, not used it for ages, nice and light to carry. The results are good IMHO, I purchased this back in 2019 for £30 IIRC, and it's in excellent condition. But now I'm tempted again for the DFA* 70-200 which is dropping in price and seems a bargain too good to miss.

2. The dot in the sky middle top is a gull BTW.

The sky has a lot more interest in version 2 and the boat is not overexposed, but you lose a little detail in the shadows.

Have you tried selective editing, so that your changes to exposure/contrast/saturation etc. only affects a certain part of the image ? I do this a lot with my images in Photoshop using layer masks.
Yes. I used 'Local Adjustments' Peter, (must be the equivalent to the Photoshop Selective editing) only on the Frigate though as it was blowing highlights, on my monitor the shadows looked ok. I have been exploring these Local Adjustments in RT and find them very useful. Thanks for the comments though.

Nice, gives a really cold sense with the blue'ish hue IMHO or am I talking B*ll*cks?

These are right up my street! couldn't resist - sorry. Snickets make similar interesting shots too, 'any gate' as they used to say in Yorkshire!
