| Site Supporter | Thanks for the positive comments on my Orchid shots. Tran : nice portrait that, well done. To answer your question, many are from my own garden, but it helps when you works at the local Botanic Gardens, as I do  Georg : interesting use of Railway sleepers (as we call them in Aus) Dave : really like those fountain shots. Alan : your series of Tractor shots aree just great. Really impressed with the vibrant colour. Rollsup : what a great capture.!! Well done all! |

| Moderator Site Supporter | Tran, Good portraits and model shots all. The last one is very good but she looks very uncomfortable. Interesting choice of location. Georg, is that a fence with the railway ties? (That what they are called here). Good shots and an interesting semi-abstract look. Dave, very nice fountain shots, you ever use that Bigma any more? Alan, I like the tractor shots. Old and new. Great colour. Not bad for a city boy! Rollsup, Excellent shot of the fox. Very cute. He looks like he's hunting. |

I truley suck at letting things go - so far on this forum I have sold a DA 12-24 and a K10D , so far on this forum I have purchased (amoung other things) a DA 12-24 and a K10D The Bigma is one lens I will look closely at for selling.... it's a great lens there is no doubt and I have some fine picutures with it, but for my current interest (Landscapes / Architecture) it may be one I can let go and better servered by another lens |

| Pentaxian | I haven't posted for a few days but not for lack of pictures. I've been busy with a bit of a buying spree... three new lenses are on their way. But my big decision is whether to give up my FA77. I know that sounds like madness, but I could then maybe get a K20D. I don't use the FA77 as much now I have the Vivi Series 1 105mm. Though the Limited is smaller, lighter and faster the Vivi is fast enough 90% of the time, has more reach and (of course) macro. To help make the decision I took the FA77 out for a walk. I'm tending to do more candids, so that's what I came back with. Talking / Listening  Window Display  Survey Instrument  Milk On Sale  Photo Booth  |
