The weather here is mostly.......

Rocket blower and arctic butterly used here, there expensive, but then again so is your gear.

When editing make a duplicate layer after you have edited. Then resize the image size to 800 pixels along the longest side, save this image for the forums and save the original layer at its maximum size.

Like the colour of the first, although too tight a crop I think. The second one I like the symetry of it and detail. I would darken it and crop out the line of rivets at the top though. Third shot is a tad bright also and too centrally composed. Fourth shot needs rotating clockwise as it isn't level. The fifth shot overexposed again but I like the bokeh areas in this. And the last, the bird is lost in the frame, crop in more and place him on one of the thirds lines.

Will do yes, seems fine though.

It would seem Pentax make some pretty sturdy kit, read this.

Don't know if it was the angle at which it hit, but no more than a bit of dry mud on it. Immense sigh of relief I ccan tell you.
