Great photos keep on coming.
The only criticism I have is photos posted straight after each other without a gap. It makes them look like they are joined in a single photo and is a little distracting.
EXIF info would be great too. Resize before you post and the EXIF should appear as long as the software you use to resize doesn't mess with it. PDCU4 will resize and retain the EXIF.

Hi All,

This is my first reply/post (whatever

) on PentaxForums.

I'd like to share a picture I really like which I took at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. This photo didn't undergo any Post-Processing. It's exactly as it came our of the K-r.

Here is the link: Jerusalem with InvestSoft - Idan Mashaal's Photos

Would appreciate any feedback.

Thanks,
Idan.

Near the Black Sea shore at night:

All these are straight from the camera (taken with the kit 18-55mm), excepting the fifth one, the boat was very underexposed so I had to lighten up the scene a bit. The more I have the K-r the more I like it.

Thanks! Sorry for the late answer. The lens is Tamron 10-24 3,5-4,5 Di II. Only UV-filter.
I'm very satisfied with this lens.

Some are Pentax 50-200, but you'll see the difference.

Andrei, those are terrific shots! Look forward to seeing more!

A series of shots from Rocky Mountain National Park. Landscape shots are with the 18-55 and the elk with the 50-200.

Andrei: Very nice images! What is the name of the city? It looks very nice!

Thank you. For those that don't know that is Longs Peak from Rock Cut......an iconic shot, but clouds and lighting conditions make each one unique.
