thank you..

all of my shots are jpegs, post-processed, with ON1...

one of the things I've tried to do is try to consistently produce colors that I see before putting the camera to my eye... this can be tricky when using two different camera systems...

Nice one.

I love a clear blue sky. Ignore all the pundits who parrot the "clear skies are boring" line. Slabs of colour can be striking, as any abstract painter will attest.

Thanks! I'll admit I'm a cloud junkie, but when you have a striking subject, a solid blue sky works pretty well

The 18-135 is such a handy lens on APS-C. I've been using it quite a bit since I got my K3iii. Not flashy; just a solid working lens.

I had one a few years ago and sold it. Not really sure why I sold it. One came up for sale on the Forum Marketplace a couple of weeks ago for a great price. The lens and my KP are getting along swimmingly!
