Provia fun
Lens: various Camera: Pentax LX Photo Location: Tasmania 
Posted By: nickthetasmaniac, 02-27-2011, 02:56 AM

Just a random collection from some Provia 100F rolls I got back recently. All shot with the Pentax LX and either SMC K24/f2.8, SMC M35/f2 or SMC M50/f1.4.

Gotta say, I really love the way Provia converts to B&W!

By the way, the bridge the kids are jumping off is just as high as it looks: about 15m! It's a swimming hole on the North Esk River near Launceston, and its something of a right of passage for Launceston teenagers to jump off a collection of cliffs and bridges here and at the Cataract Gorge. Quite dangerous and amazing fun, ahhh for summer

The kids were jumping off the pipe visible and over the railing, which is why it looks like he's in front of the railing... Agree tho, looks very odd!

Yes the fear gene does not hit some of us until later 20's or early 30's. Crazy !

Kids always amaze with their lack of fear. Nice shots.
