Ahhhhh here we go again come on folks feel free to start the new thread anytime on the following Sunday don't be shy - pad that post count !

Feel free to post any topic you enjoy that was photographed between July 13th and July 27th.

Rules as before:
1) No theme just your favorite stuff.
2) Let's keep it to about 4-6 images per post just so the thread doesn't get too big each week .
3) Any Pentax camera is fine, film, P&S, DSLR (or Samsung DSLR)
4) Runs for 7 days <Sunday Date> to <Sunday Date>
5) Enter anything you shot last week or this current week until the thread closes.

At the taste of Edmonton (where local resturants show their stuff) there was also a vehicle display - here a few Harley's for the bikers in the crowd.

Rosemary - thanks for the comments, it's too bad it was so busy and the bikes were so close together. It was very sunny and all the chrome did indeed sparkle.

Alan - nice series - boy she must have been really disobedient for that kind of treatment fun shot. Love the stapled poll and the hard rock cafe signature vehicle through the wall

Nice use of the FE, especially that pool shot. I guess I'll have to run around with mine tomorrow (today was Super Tak Day).

Believe it or not, that macro was shot with the Tamron 70-300.

Alan - thanks for comments - the fisheye is fun and quite useful in tight quarters. That macro was nice with the Tammy 70 300 wow. Your latest is a nice series with the Super Tak and 28 like the eagle statue.

borno - great bird series. Nice to have such beautiful birds so close at hand. Well done #2 and #4 are my favs.

Lots of time left - don't be shy post away let’s see your world.
