Oh, god, how embarrassing, erm, I don't know how to say this, but... You've got grass stuck between your teeth...

Oh that llama made me laugh ( as did the following remarks!)

I wandered out with the K-5 today for only the second time in as many months, I've been overwhelmed by too many cams (the X100 and GRD3 taking most of my attention)... Here's one from today with the 55-300

I just don't understand why anyone would take the risk...

In the 80s, a lot af saab advertisements showed the cars in bad weather. Dark, grey, cloudy skys, wet roads, bad driving conditions. And on the road: the Saab. As if they said: There is no such thing as bad weather - only bad cars.

And, yes, compared to other contemporary cars, a classic Saab 99 or 900 handles extremely well. So why not drive your classic car today - as it was meant to?

Besides, there is no bad weather - only bad cameras. Hanging out of the window of a car at highway speed in a typical Eifel downpour - and nota single second did I worry about my gear. Thank, you, Pentax, for the k200.

Note by the editor: pictures link to my blog - with more pictures from this shooting. Enjoy!
