Well I've always enjoyed taking pictures when I was on trips and traveling, even at family holidays, but I have now moved into the realm of actually going out to take pictures. It started slowly after I got my k10d; I would put the camera in the car on a regular trip or even to work. Yesterday I specifically went out for the sole purpose of getting a fix: taking some pictures!

I've been wanting to try some different lens I had picked up cheaply earlier this month.

Here are few pictures of winter surfing and a nearby lighthouse in Rhode Island

1. Taken with Pentax FA 80-320 F 4.5-5.6


2. The magic lighthouse taken with Pentax DA 40 mm F 2.8



3. BW of lighthouse; Pentax DA 40 mm F 2.8


4. My last sunset of 2007. Taken with Pentax FA 80-320 F 4.5-5.6


Yes, I even picked up some dust on the sensor, just like someone who actually uses their camera for fun.

Really nice series. Seems like succesfull day, and I'd say those lenses paid off...

I like them, really enjoy the light house shots. Winter surfing in RI ?? Wow visions of some serious shrinkage comes to mind wet suit or not !

Shrinkage? whats that? I agree the lighthouses stand out for me, great sky and nice contrast. Well done.

Nice images, I do like the lighthouse pictures but winter surfing? The water is still in its fluid state I don't see any ice? :-)

Take care, Heinrich

Please don't blame everyone for your new addiction weatherwise, I take full responsibility

Oh, nice pictures, and I love the title.

Nice shots WW, I especially like the B&W of the lighthouse. Rhode Island is one of my favorite states and the home of the greatest marine archetect ever... Capt Nat, and the second greatest his son L. Francis.
