Apart from the obvoius landscapes, I like to pick out details in the snow, and get in close. Sunshine helps to highlight colours but the stark black and white look of snow covered trees or frosty branches can create some interesting images.

My first camera was a box brownie.( No, I wasn't the original owner!) It was great. Dead easy to use but a bit bulky. Then I graduated to a Zenith E, then , eventually an MEsuper.

That's a good price for a pentax shift lens. I've seen them go for £600 +.

they do a 35mm shift lens in pentax mount.
They also do an adapter that allows you to use any pentacon6 mount lens on a pentax as a shift lens.
I have seen pentax shift lenses turn up on ebay occasionally but they go for around £600.

There are also a few russian tlit/shift lenses currently being made in a pentax mount, but I can't recall the names. Perhaps somebody else can.
Ebay is probably your best bet.

DA*600 f4 ( I can dream.....)
K8 same dimensions as K7 with new sensor - much better high ISO noise performance and full HD video ( 1920 x1080 at 24, 25 and 30 fps.)contrast based autofocus in video mode, ability to select sdm or screw focus. (14.5 Mpixels is fine for me.)
A DA* or ltd lens with 1.something aperture!
A selection of new 645D lenses (or relaunch of old ones.)
A price reduction in lenses.....

Basically you need to post them elsewhere (eg Flickr) and link to them.
