My K7 Got Me On Page 3 Of The Geelong Advertiser (Local Newspaper)
Posted By: Christopher M.W.T, 08-24-2009, 05:43 AM

Published on Page 3 in the Saturday edition of the local paper, it reaches about 150,000-200,000 readers and is the second oldest papers in Australia.

I must apologise for the article itself, I didn't write it. The reporter seemd quite fresh and conducted the interview with me over the phone, she didn't quite capture what I was trying to explain, however gladly she did mention that I was using a Pentax

Also the scan is a bit cropped, couldn't fit the whole page.

I'm emailing this to the rep of CR Kennedy, I want some freebies for giving Pentax a plug

Hopefully a good price of the 50-135 DA*

Well done sir. And good luck in the future.

I wish I could capture a Moorabbin skyline that looked like that.

I think most/all people in Geelong that read that would have given up at 'Give it a try'.

Incredible photo! But it was you, not Pentax. Pentax is just a good tool.

Congratz.

Well I don't want other people to copy what I do

Considering i'm right in the CBD of Geelong i'm suprised i managed to capture the stars that brightly, so you should be able to get similar results in Moorabbin as long as you don't face the Melb CBD.

I did a party boat job in a suit and tie.
