Thanks all.

Obviously, SDC is supposed to be SMC...

Just found out this image was one of the winners (there were three winners plus a "Grand Prize" winner) in the Analogue Wonderland/Kodak Kodak Ektar competition. The only criteria was that it had to be shot on Ektar 100. I used my MX and -- I think -- my SDC Pentax-M 100mm f/2.8 lens.

Same bit of landscape, same lens, same camera, different day, different tree.

I'm not sure I understand this comment! Cheers, Kris.

Three trees... not as in title of thread . The other two are a bit of a distraction, but presumably couldn't be avoided (unless you carry an axe in your camera bag :twisted.

Nice sky, tree (the main one!) nicely positioned against the brightness, path leading to the future - yes a nice picture. Worth going back when the leaves have fallen and frost is on the ground?

Ah yes, I see what you mean. It is very close to where I live and recently I have taken to walking the footpaths in that direction (west) more, as well as the ones to the east. If we get any frosts this year, it'll be worth walking over there.

Be careful, from my experience they are not up to dealing with a DA* lens

What's the basic difference with a DA* lens from any other lens that makes them unable to deal with them?

Sept 28: another lone tree par Kris Lockyear, on ipernity

PS There is some problem with Chrome under Win10 not showing my Ipernity images. They show fine using Chrome on my Android phone and using Firefox on my Win10 machine. I'm trying to find out the issue.

I've used Alan Marlow link a few times. Great service and price but not certain if he can do DA* lens

Martin

Big thumbs-up for Alan but I have only used him to fix manual glass, and my 43mm Ltd. I don't know if he deals with lenses with built-in motors.
