The reason we see a "Click to view" link instead of the image is that this forum (and many other forums these days) won't display images from non-SSL websites (the URL starts with http: instead of https: ). Lovely abstract pattern, by the way.

I'd say thet the 18-135 also does nicely as somehting of a macro lens.

Sometimes it feels like you can just point the camera any direction and you will get a great photo. This in the monochrome landscapes is from the same farm https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/26-mini-challenges-games-photo-stories/7...ours-171.html#

And I agree this lens works well as a macro as well

I find it difficult to walk past a quiver tree and not try and take a picture

This is one amazing landscape and you've imaged it lovingly. Thanks for sharing.

I had to really look for the chick! They're well camouflaged.
