On second thoughts, are you giving us a preview of a new monster from the next series of Dr. Who?

Ain't nature wonderful! Superb photography, too.

Steve

That applies to everything on the internet...

And +3. The distance vanishing into haze, the light on the near ground, the big open spaces - really good, really evocative of the place and time of year.

The only one I can't get excited about is no. 4. Pity the trunk of the tree isn't in front of sky. As it is, the trunk gets lost, leaving a leafy blob on the horizon.

I bought a new (but discontinued) lens from Japan in October. VAT was included in the quoted and invoiced price and collected by eBay. There was no additional customs/admin charge. And the postal service managed to deliver it about a week earlier than estimated.

Yes! That's what a brandy glass full of sweets should look like.

Steve

I'll drink to that! They are very good indeed, even before making proper use of the glass.

To my eyes, the only negative in the whole set is the sweets around the bottom of the brandy glass which detract from the glass itself. Delete them (or better still, eat them) and it becomes a better picture to me.

These seem to open up a whole new realm of photography. A triptych of triangles with different coloured sweets in each? Sweets in different glasses (sherry, wine, champagne, whisky...)? Different geometric shapes made of sweets? Same shapes, different sweets? Lots of possibilities...

Steve

Yep, just tried Duckduckgo and it's as you say - invisible. It finds ePhotozine's pentax forum but not Pentaxuser.com. No problem with Google.

Steve

Stunning, both of them . And they both have 'artistic merit' .

Bet it was cold...

Steve

Excellent concept and processing. Somewhere in Middle Earth...
