Hello all! I am going to make this a sticky post in hopes that I can get all of you who have submitted pictures to the Pentax Photo Gallery (PPG) and have had them accepted please post a couple of them here and please link back to your gallery so we can see your work. We have so many incredible photogs on this site I am curious to see what Pentax considers your best work.

Thanks!

Well, today I got my first k-7 image aproved in the gallery.

It's called "Captain". (Check the Exif.)

It's not easy sometimes to use primes ...

Nice shot. Checked your whole stream through as well. I'm not really a fan of birds so won't comment on those, but the surfshots and most of the b&w stuff were impressive... I like. Especially "Hidden Treasure", that's supernice and an instant fave.

And at the same time, seriously, "Happy Birthday"... What? Why?

I get your point, it’s different.

All images I submit have an history and so "Happy Birthday". It's a special one, it was a FA 50 testing with new umbrellas but more important, it was done because my sons were sick/flu at the time, at home, and we were having some fun/distracting moments because when kids are sick they get bored, especially when summer starts.
It was fun, we liked the image due to being different and we submit.

Of course it's different from the rest on my gallery but it still tell a history of a "Pentax moment" to us

That explains a lot.

I don't buy one for me just because "i'm afraid of the SDM issue"

The light spewing out came out just like that with the DA21 (Lens flare i guess).

LSPhotography · 10-13-2009, 06:14 PM
