I took a quick snapshot of it through the glass. I didn't spend much time staring at it, although some of the others may have looked in more detail.

Taking photos of paintings is difficult to get good quality, and I agree with Gwyn that if you want an image of a specific painting, buy it in the shop. I, however, often want to take images of odd things in museums for lectures that are not otherwise easily obtainable (I had a devil of a job getting permission to take a photo of a Roman tap in an Italian museum once upon a time). Even that, though, is becoming less of an issue as more and more museums put more and more of their collections online although in fairly lo-res (usually good enough for powerpoint though). What I do enjoy doing, though, is taking pictures of the place itself, and the people in it. For that, the last thing you want is a flash going off. I could see banning photos in the room with with the Mona Lisa, just from a through-put and people-annoying perspective, but more generally not being allowed to take photos at all would be a shame.

I've been using Lightroom 4.4 for several years. I've just got a new computer and installed Lightroom on it. But, its 4.1. There was a "free" upgrade to 4.4 but it is no longer on the Adobe website (surprise surprise). I've been googling trying to find if someone else has made a copy available to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas where I could get the upgrade? I have no desire to pay a monthly fee for the latest Lightroom.
Thanks, Kris.
Thanks, Kris.

Lovely image I'd be happy to hang on my wall. Just super.

Quick grabbed shot while I was out cycling. Shame I wasn't near a more interesting foreground. Pentax Q-S1 and the 06 zoom lens.

Many thanks Chris, SRS and Pentax.
BTW, they are going to run the President's photo comp again next year with the Limited Edition KP as the prize.
