Okay, this is contrary to what I read almost everywhere on the web. Are you saying my GX-10 can use a Linear Polarizer?

Rightly so. That second photo is enchanting. It just captures "the moment".

(...off to Camden now...) LOL

Captivating photos, and with a bit of post processing, you could submit these to one of those Scariest Places publications/shows.

Welcome to the forums! I have the GX-10 which is the Samsung rebadge of the K10D. Still happy with it, although am currently selling it due to need of funds (but no one's buying, is that a hint?).

Any Japanese / Asian ladies here with a Kimono handy? I think a lot of us here would love to have a photo session at Kew Gardens, under the pagoda, what with all the leaves starting to fall now.

But seriously, any other places where I can see a pagoda?

I think the price is a sort of "crowd control" if you think about it

I can see why they are charging such prices, I mean where else can you see a Pagoda?

I like it! It works as it is, have you tried lowering the opacity of the gray halo? There's more of the halo on the top than on the bottom, but otherwise a nice BW photo.

No.1 for me too, although I like how number 3 turned out, a bit more contrast and that would be right for me.

Monday/Tuesday, then of course there's that Apple event which will probably overshadow anything any other company will release.
