I have photos here, on Flickr, the PPG, the lomography website and my own website: http://krislockyearphotography.foliopic.com/

Here is, obviously, just my Pentax stuff. Some of the nicer pictures in the gallery, pictures for C&C in the 'my pictures' section.
Flickr: general dumping ground for all sorts of things including my photographs, old family photographs, photographs of work my archaeological society have done etc. In other words, and easy place to put photos for a wide variety of purposes.
Lomography is for my Lubitel 2, FED2, Horizont and Zorkii 4 images.
PPG is, well, the PPG.
My website is for the stuff I like whatever equipment has been used to create the image.

I also have images from Flickr posted to the MFlenses forum, the USSRphoto forum and PentaxForums.com.

Curiously, my Lubitel 2 images seem to generate more interest than the Pentax dSLR stuff...

Could you take a few photos of the ER case so that I can see what the proper one looks like? Very few on ebay that are actually for the MX. Vendors seem to think the case is the same as for the ME Super etc. which it isn't!

Ta muchly, Kris.

They are the very common LR44 or CR44 button batteries. Most branches of WH Smith, Boots, Tescos etc. will carry them.

Best wishes, Kris.

Yup, although I might be tempted to get all Ilford products rather than mixing makes. Probably wont make any difference but I tend to be a bit cautious.

Not vital, but you might also consider some of this.

Best wishes, Kris.

PS.

I ought to say that I have always assumed the gallery is for people to place the shots they like and "Your images" is for C&C. I tend to limit myself to bland 'nice shot' type comments in the gallery (for those that I think are nice shots of course) and keep C&C for here. I don't especially check my shots in the gallery for comments, just the ones I post here.

This thread has occurred before!

Its not what you do, but how you do it.

Example.
1.
a) The composition is dire and unbalanced.
b) Have you tried cropping a little off the top? It might make the focal point sit more comfortably in the frame?

2.
a) Its out of focus.
b) Do you think the image would have been better if you had focused on the eyes rather than the tip of his nose?

3.
a) Your exposure is wrong.
b) Shame the highlights were a little blown. Did you shoot RAW? You might be able to recover them in software.

You get the idea...

Sometimes you just have to decide that your favourite image is your favourite and not get too worried about what the rest of the world thinks. My favourite from Venice failed to get into the PPG twice and doesn't get many views on Flickr. It is still my favourite image and one day I'll get a nice big print made and stick it on my wall.

Sometimes images get stale with over-exposure. One of my images has actually sold a few copies and was made into our Christmas card last year. Now I think, "oh, that one again... Zzzzz..."

Best wishes, Kris.

I am the worst person in the world to ask about travelling light as I never do. I would have thought your suggested line up sounds a good compromise. I do not have the 10-17mm but I do have the 12-24 which I wouldn't leave behind for something like Vegas. Personally, I think ultrawides are very difficult to use for rural landscapes but they are invaluable for urban landscapes.

Have fun. K.

Please don't ruin perfectly good glass butchering the mount. If you really want to use Av mode sell them and either buy some Taks or some 'A' series lenses.

My DA12-24mm. I never cease to be surprised how sharp that lens is.
