I got AyinX.com (my wife yay) to create me a customised mobile phone case for my Galaxy S. Dirty blood red with the "O" from one of my favorite bands, Opeth from Sweden.

Argh, I need my own lightbox. Thanks for looking!

The 55mm Tomioka f/1.2 produces a completely mad bokeh
OMG. Didn't know such a lens existed! Saw that rear element, and that is kuh-razy! Must be a heavily sought after lens!

I thought joining PentaxUser.co.uk automatically made me a professional?

Gareth, that second photo is beautiful! Talk about painting with light!

The first and the fourth (kudos to him for showing something that 99% of the world probably wouldn't dare do)!

Thanks for the heads up Gwyn. I just sent them a message via the form you linked. Here's what I sent them:

Just inquiring, why Tamron no longer seems to be producing newer lenses for the K-mount (Pentax). Considering that the Pentax K5 has been selling well (probably not well enough for you guys) and they have recently been injected new life with the Ricoh acquisition, I would like to find out what Tamron's plans are for the future. Any information you can provide will be most appreciated!

Sincerely,

A Pentaxian, and Tamron User
It would be nice if other Pentaxians get on this. At the very least, we can create some "noise"!

I wouldn't have much experience on this, but the Samyang 85 1.4 I use produces some beautiful bokeh.

Not cheating, although the drastic saturation difference of the background and foreground removes this from the photography category for me. It's now a graphic work of art. I'll take the edited version over the original any day.

Beautiful! Love all of them (I'm a sucker for messy skies), and the second and third really stand out! Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful, simply beautiful. Reminds me of how small we are in the great plan of things, and of this video, from the late great Carl Sagan: Pale Blue Dot.
