Sorry to hear this Maria, however, don't rush anything, get well by getting it right, I have rushed recoveries from operations and illnesses which I now realise was wrong I should have known then

I look forward to your recovery and subsequent return

Croeso y Pentax User Warren

I reside South West of you a few miles from Llangollen

I hope you enjoy your K1 and don't suppose you will need to cross one of the bridges too often in search of photo opportunities

Regards

First up I apologise if this is not classed as Pentax related, however, I find myself in the position of having too many PCs and have one in to give away.

It is an advent desktop with a Pentium 4 3.2 processor, 1500mb of ram and 120&80gb hard drives and runs windows 7.

My k5 is sitting on top of it now but is not included just there to add some Pentax related part

There is no photo software on it it is just as it comes so to speak.

Collection would be the best option or I could drop it off within a reasonable distance of Llangollen or Chester

I will be on here today regularly but will be back in work tomorrow so don't panic if replies are slow after today

Regards

Oh dear, I hadn't realised that, hope you are OK.

Our weather is more predictable, we have cold rain in winter and warmer rain in the other three seasons

Hello and welcome

I have a cousin in Houston, I believe things are a little hotter and drier over there than they are here

I have avoided this as I do with most potentially argumentative threads, however, here is my opinion.

Firstly, I stopped posting images here as the overprocessing stick was aimed in my direction even on some images using my Sigma 10-20 lens on which I had desaturated the blues/greens etc to render the images more 'acceptable, I wasn't insulted I just got bored by the same old same old even when I had desaturated them which I suppose is under processing perhaps.

Yes, I process my images.

It is all simply choice and preference, there is no right or wrong per se which is part of what I love with photography.

And here is my comparison, I have an egg and a potato before me, how many of us will eat them as they are and how many prefer to 'process' them before consumption??

Here we have choice and preference, including the risks of eating them raw, all choice - is your post processing just your brown sauce or cooking then adding salt etc of photography??

Personally, I prefer to look at good or pro this work and work out the pp routine rather than question it.

Im now off to eat a dry tea bag, or maybe I will process it a little

Hello and welcome

I also have no real knowledge of film but will help if I can

Get well soon Andy

I guess plenty of walking and clicking will be the order of the day

I loved the disclaimer at the start

I can just imagine hoards of angry people being keyboard warriors

I have to admit I'm impressed with the review etc, am i going to get one? No not yet but I'm warming to the idea
