Panorama suits the first one very well. lovely, but the image is very small. Do you have a larger size ?

Expired film users? Have you tried a Medium?

During the recent high winds the beach car parks were overflowing so I took to the high ground with the K1 and a bag of prime lenses for lightness, although I did curse leaving a long telephoto behind for the crashing waves and a peregrine falcon at eye level!

I have to share this, just love this guy's work especially the auto mechanics series; they were not models but the photographer came across them in a garage and they agreed to pose for recreations of Renaissance and other art works. Ok he may or may not use a Pentax but what an inspiration!
link Take a look at his Snap-On series as well, just great!

On my last visit to Polzeath in Cornwall there was a fashion shoot at the north cove using this bike as a prop, they kindly let me take a couple of snaps during a break. Taken on the first outing with my new 77mm Limited on a K1:

Gwyn, would you believe K10D in reverse ( using I in place of 1 )
We had spuggies nesting in the loft this year,so it was a good day to check all of the pointing.
The tiles are quite grippy so not a real poblem we just keep off the original tiles as they are fifty years old and will be brittle. The only problem was after dinner the tiles were too hot to touch for any length of time.
So it was back to the gazebo construction

Spuggies?!

Barrie, I don’t have a drone, one of the reasons being my village is a drone-free zone due to the small airfield nearby. Gwyn, I’m not that good at PS so a ladder it is!

Talking of ladders, I have a photo shoot at a garden party coming up, with 54 socially distanced people. The only way I can see to get everyone in is from the top of a stepladder which I am not looking forward to, so I had better go easy on the Prosecco!

Yesterday I managed to find a Dyson face fan with cool function, out of stock almost everywhere else, due today. Parcelforce didn’t deliver, minutes before it was due they got a message allegedly from me to deliver elsewhere, and checking something else due yesterday the same thing. The local depot was adamant it wasn’t a hack and couldn’t explain it, and assured me they would come tomorrow, so another night of sweltering heat. The predicted storms keep passing us by so a crisp dry garden.
