Both superb photos. I wouldn't imagine both of them being taken the same day, or area even as the second photo has a darker tone.
I would crop (brush) out the house(s) on the second photo, and leave that abandoned tower there.

After reading the first post, my initial thought was "wut? That's like photographing flowers in B+W...".
Which is usually a miss, but when you hit the mark, it's beautiful. And these photos are beautiful sir. Thank you for sharing them with us. Toucan + Hornbill are my faves.:arrow:

Focus on Imaging in March (Birmingham NEC)

Unfortunately, looks like Pentax is a no-show for this year. Shouldn't be a problem considering they were just bought by Ricoh, Canon wasn't there last year.
Yes, I think they are a thing of the past. These big ones take all the fun away from the smaller ones.

Out of all them, I like the third the most. After taking it all as it is, I'm thinking that they're all a bit too "bright" for my tastes. But that's me, I've always associated decay with darkness, as such I would probably try to make my photos look sombre in post processing, if I had the chance to take photos of those places!
From your photos, I wouldn't change a thing Blythman, it shows your work process as a photographer and I like it how it is.

Welcome Simon! Thank you for sharing such a wonderful story. It just shows how everything falls in to place for some of us with regards to the brand.

Its very reassuring for us that Pentax won't be there. It just means that they're (Ricoh) focusing more on making 2012 the year where everyone will want a Pentax camera. Right? I hope!

Its been a while since I saw any of his videos, as I wasn't particularly happy with how he just dismissed the K-r, but thanks for the link. I agree, a K5 vs A65 would have been nice!
