A really gritty and well captured set. I particularly like 5 and 14. Were you clocked taking 14?

Number 5 is a lovely picture with great composition, the macro capability is a winner by the look of it. You must be really pleased with this lens.

Cheers chap, the mood/colours were hard to capture in the second set, but are close to what I was experiencing, but the light in the first ones was easier to use.
The foreground in 4. was very dark when taken, will have another play.

I have been busy in French Alps for most of August, but managed to take a few photographs. The first few were taken in very strong evening sun, temp. was still over 30.

These next ones were taken in the early morning light, before the sun rose fully above the mountain.

How much is the pentax Q??
Too much

I hope pentax will bring out a APSC compact just like the X100
I wish they would. Something that is discrete. Given today';s sad climate of distrust of photographers in the street something discrete but HQ would be most welcome
A Leica M9 with the red dot covered with a "V-tech" or "Playmobil" sticker might work.

Well I have tried to lighten, and treat a few differently, crop, contrast etc, are these any better?

Come on JR, this was a series of shots taken with a Pentax. To round things off he slipped an old one in.

Yes, he should have noticed (and noted) that. Yes, this is a Pentax forum. But I rather would see one very good Canikon photo presented in a topical series of what mostly are Pentax shots than a 20-odd photo post with crap shots incidentally made using a Pentax camera.

He will write a hundred times "I shouldn't touch a non-Pentax camera or go near one" and all will be well.

Thanks for the support chap, but in fairness I made a mistake and have had a chat with John, and I fully understand his remark and why it was made. The disingenuous remarks by others are less well received, but more indicative of forum life across the internet. So to make amends I have posted today some images with pentax camera and older pentax lens..see waiting for mum

Thanks for the comments folks, I do struggle with skin tones in black and white, and tend to go the darker route, I will have to have a play with pp. Many thanks, I am really impressed with the sharpness of this little secondhand 28mm.
