For me it is the second image, focusing on the "pin cushion" has given the image greater depth. I don't mind the out of focus areas.
I have a copy of this lens and the results (from the lens, not my photography!) are always superb

Could not agree more

I have caught the spring clean bug and decided it's time to move on some of my surplus Pentax kit. First up is my 21mm Limited
This lens has been with me from new and is still in mint condition. Comes complete with original front and rear caps and the dedicated Pentax hood (I am currently searching through a pile of boxes to locate the original box which I have somewhere!) I am looking for £175 (including UK postage)
The going rate on that auction house seems to be £180 from Japan, so you could save yourself the 20% VAT.
MPB do have what they describe as a well used copy for £114 - from the pictures well used is a generous description!

If there is any interest I will get pictures up over the next day or so

Another super set. Your mono treatment is spot on and composition is excellent.

I could not put it better

Really nice set, personal favourite is number 6

Nice set. The two mono images stand out and I would have to agree with the other comments that the first image has the most impact.

Nice set Graham, certainley looks a place well worth a visit

For travel I tend to use either a KP or K3iii body paired with the 20-40mm Ltd, if the 20mm end is not quite wide enough the diminuitive Pentax 15mm Ltd delivers great results

Completely agree

Agree with all the comments. The parts of each image that are in focus are superb, f/8 obviously a sweet spot for the lens. For me the out of focus areas enhance the images.
Very jealous that you got such a great experience
