These are really nice. Walk the Path and These Logs are particularly atmospheric. I like the PP treatment, really brings out the tangled detail, although I can't make up my mind whether I like the way OOF areas are posterised in the background. The colour toning is effective though.

They did - it's called the K-5 (Beats the Kr in fact).

I think if you're looking to pay less than £500, a new Kr or a nearly-new K7 with lots of warranty left are solid choices which you won't regret.

Good shots Bob - especially the timing on the last one, and the reflection of the old building caught in the newer one. Well seen!

I'm fairly sure the K-7 could equal or better that at 3200 though, and for a lot of people, that would be enough. 6400 is horrible on the K7 though

Cheers. The thing with the higher ISO is that some pictures can be a bit grainy though. I just offered $625 for a k7
Haha just wait till you see the K-7, then you'll see what grain really looks like! No seriously its not too bad at conservative ISOs, at least it's film-like.

In CS3 it's Edit>Transform>Flip Horizontal. Actually in PSE it might be Image>Rotate>Flip Layer Horizontal (from memory, the option is further down the list of options than Flip Horizontal).

Amazing bird / dinosaur / thing! You were brave getting so close, it looks like it wouldn't think twice about disembowelling you with its claw...
