Taken with my K20D and Vivitar 28mm close-focus manual lens:



(Its a cd, with water droplets, under a spotlight. No photoshop jiggery pokery at all).

Ditto. I bought one many moons ago on ebay from Greenlife-style and it was great. Bought another for my K20D and its perfect too. Can't beat it for value and qaulity.

I spent a day at Edinburgh Zoo with my friend Roy on Friday. Rather to my amusement he spent the whole day complaining about how rubbish his Canon EOS 400D and Sigma 70-300 lens combination was compared to my Pentax K20D and Tamron 70-300 lens!!!

Here's some shots from the day:
1. Mercedes, the polar bear



2. Rainbow Lorikeet on my arm (I had another on my shoulder, sqwuaking loudly. Thank goodness for AF as I had to just hold the camera out, point and shoot). That's Roy in the background taking a shot of me and the bird! LOL



3. On our block, all of the guys call her flamingo....



4. Flamingo close-up
I just loved the colour and textures



5. Zebras

A Snowy Owl taken today at the Five Sisters Zoo Park in Polbeth, Scotland. The zoo is really struggling financially so if you are in the area its well worth going along to support them. My partner and I went along and had a great afternoon out. Its a superb place to take children as you can feed the animals (pygmy goats right through to the ringtailed lemurs).

Taken at Loch Leven Fife. This little boat is the ferry across to Loch Leven Castle on the island in the middle of the loch. The castle is where Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned in 1567, and later forced to adbicate.

This was taken a while back with my K100D.

Thanks jackitec - much appreciated. I might upload some soon. To everybody else, I've updated my avatar and profile pic!

Sheesh - everyone a comedian, eh? LOL

Hello! This is me.......in my Applecrumble & Fish t-shirt! LOL

Ok Stoupaduck - I might give that a try.

LOL Worse than that - they were bought entirely for photographing! Not for Valentines Day at all. I don't believe in it. You should show the one you love that you love them every day, not just the day that the marketing men want you to!
