On a rainy day in the park, some locals put on a fine display...

Was it worth getting wet for?

Hi Dave, and welcome. I'm new to the K5 and forum, and have found it a great help and inspiration....much more than the manual. Sounds like you are itching to get to grips with your new purchase! Lens buying addiction will soon kick in, so beware.
For the moment it looks like the cat will be pressed into service. Lovely cat, our Milliepuss knows the drill with a new camera or lens.

Cheers chap, its Brueton Park, Solihull. My wife saw the pics from my morning out, and picked out no.3 as well...she called me a perv!
I had lost inspiration after the holidays, hence recent trip to Brum and this park, to try and kick start my eye as it were. The last time I tried that in Brueton Park I ended up selling all my dslr gear and bought a Fuji X100! It was so unreliable I knew I had to return to the dslr fold, by which time the K5 and Pentax were calling...

ps no.3 was with the 90mm, although I am still on the look out for something 150-300, just can't decide.

These are fantastic, great clarity and tones. Hope now that you have started the learning process, you share some more.
Nigel

Thanks chap, I keep the 28mm in my pocket, and I am pleased with some of the photographs taken so far.
Nigel

Thanks for the kind comments.
Nigel

The sun was out and love was in the air...

Too much time on my brain me thinks...

Really like the skin tone in number one, and a good subject, but for me number 2 is excellent and well taken.
Is it possible to recreate this grain with pp using silverex or similar?
