Odd then that Pentax are continuing to produce new K mount bodies, but Samsung aren't.In conversation, they told me that Pentax cameras are rebranded Samsungs ...
Do they really think that Samsung make cameras for Pentax .
Sad indeed, I was contemplating having my *istD converted to IR by them.
Interestingly, the 645D does not have the IR stopping low pass filter over the sensor. Start saving . . .

You have a good eye for a photo.
The ones in the covered walkway look very soft to me.
I especially like the sun dial shot. It's showing the right time too.
Given your compositional prowess, I recommend you move up from the kit lens(es) and invest in some better optics.

Simple answer, none, unless you work for the demolition company.For what reason could any responsible person want to do this?
Responsible people just don't do this kind of thing, but there are plenty of irresponsible people that will, and do.
Here's a couple of examples I've been playing with:-
Before Topaz . . .
. . . and after Topaz.
Before . . .
. . . after.
Both of the before images are more or less unprocessed RAW images straight from the camera. The image of the bronze in camera was actually all shades of blue because I hadn't reset the WB from a previous project. That one has been corrected to daylight WB before being Topaz'd.

"Gathering dust" is only a figure of speech. Mine are both in plastic bags and inside a drawer, so there's not a speck of dust on them actually.
