If Private Eye still has "Pseuds' Corner", this thread would find its perfect home there.

The obtrusive watermark is hideous though. Puts me right off. The two images you posted sans waterwark further down are much more pleasant to view

The shadow areas are a bit too unnaturally dark for my taste in the first two, Russ, but I really like #4 for the interesting effect in the foreground cereal, and #5 for the beautiful spider's web.

Your "departure" from PU and your "goodbye" seem premature and unnecessary. After all, you are leaving only the UK, but the Web is Worldwide - wherever you go, your fellow Pentaxians and friends will still be here, and you can still be with them!

A wonderful set of shots, Jules. I really like all the very different layers in the third image - have you been studying "Rhein II"? (I prefer yours - and I would guess that it might be more affordable!)

Nice shot, Phil - lovely colours and reflections, and I like the way the clouds streak diagonally across the sky. Just a little nit-pick - I would prefer to clone out those two round objects in the lake (buoys?).

Nigel, thank you for viewing and commenting. That was one of the very hot sunny days, and it was such a pleasant route that it was good to stay in the carriage for two return journeys - most of the time in the buffet car with the cold drinks! With No.7 you could well be right - I will have a go at boosting it a bit.

All very good shots, Carl, and I really like 4, 5 and 6.

Here are a few from a visit to the South Devon Railway that runs between Buckfastleigh and Totnes:
1. Buckfastleigh Station viewed from the footbridge:
2. A parked diesel locomotive and a diesel railcar:
3. Stop signal at the end of the platform:
4. Storage sheds with tobacco advertisement:
5. Health & safety - say it with flowers:
6. Departing from Buckfastleigh station:
7. The Stationmaster at Staverton station:
8. Following the River Dart towards Totnes:
Hope you enjoy them - any feedback comments are always welcome.
