shame you cut his foot off on the first but the rest is good. Nice PPing too and lovely smooth OOF.

Yeah, I simply couldn't power through another row of clone stamping/layer masking/spot heal brush haha. I have to stitch my panos manually cause my photoshop's panoramic function is total crap.

Thanks! I think I have found out how to use this lens to produce the bokeh I like.

I got a new (old) lens in the other day, only problem is, it is not a Pentax, but I Nikon. A Nikkor 105mm F2,5 AI. I've only just started using this lens, but the bokeh is outstanding.

Here are a few photos of my niece and nephew playing during a snow storm over the weekend. These were shot at F4.

The PF review of the DA* 50-135mm states that the bokeh isn't very pleasing when stopped down. I have to disagree, honestly.
I've noticed that the lens is incredibly soft when approaching and at 135mm.
Here's one at 123mm and f/4

This photo was at f/3.5
