Picture of the Week (POTW) # 460 - 12 - 25 June 2017
Posted By: noelcmn, 06-21-2017, 10:10 AM

Welcome to another round of Picture of the Week (POTW).

POTW is a great spot to show off six or fewer shots you take or are editing within the thread's date range. In other words, you can post your shots from this week AND last week.

To post your great photos, just hit reply and attach away

Please:

• consider including in your post any special circumstances or tips on technique or equipment which might be interesting to others.

• identify your camera and lens if that information is easily available to you.

And please invite other Pentaxians to join us.

Some rules:
1) No theme, just post your favorite pix
2) Six or fewer images per person per thread to prevent thread bloat
3) Any Pentax, Ricoh or Samsung camera, film or digital

The current host will invite a new host via Private Message (PM). If possible, the new thread will be linked to the previous one. If the thread doesn't start, please contact the host, via PM.

Here are the records of recent POTW thread hosts: , 390 smf 391 smf 392 smf 393 smf 394 smf 395 smf 396 smf 397 smf 398 smf 399 smf 400 smf 401 smf 402 smf 403 smf 404 smf 405 smf 406 smf,407 ramseybuckeye, 408 ramseybuckeye, 409 stubyles, 410 stubyles, 411 stubyles, 412-423 SD_Bob, 424-427 dave kitson 428-451 smf 452, 453, 454 StephenHampshire 455 Alsyfox, 456 StepehenHampshire, 457 noelcmn, 458 noelcmn, noelcmn

My apologies folk, this is late, but I have started a temporary job this month, so this slipped off the radar.
Starting us off- Friday 16th was a public holiday here, and as usual, I make my way to some nature reserve within striking distance- and for the umpteenth time, it was Rietvlei Nature Reserve..


Playing around with some Paint brushes at the new job


And a Macro of the fibres of a duster


Someone was flying a Drone at a local park


And at the same spot


Soon I will be accused of having a fetish for leaves

Hi. Not too many contributions this week but the quality is high! I particularly like the zebra, the River Neath and the fawn.

Yesterday I hiked up to Victoria Peak here in Hong Kong. It was hot, sticky and at times rainy (so the River Neath photo looks particularly inviting!). I had my K-5 and 16-85 lens and bumped into a guy carrying a K-1 and a 16-85. Pretty rare Pentax sighting (should have taken a photo of him!).

WOW you guys, fabulous stuff here!
Dave K- Do some more walks .
rhenry74, Welcome to PF, and POTW in particular. Lovely shot that, interesting composition.
aaacb- that is super! Looking up, or looking straight, Can't figure it out.
Mattb123- wonderful That fawn looks like it is trying to hide. But I like the surfer best, so intense that concentration.
Nosliwmit- thanks for making me envious!
Aslyfox, those are wonderful, well done.
Swanlefitte- Superb! what an interesting take on a macro shot of a Dragon.

Still some time before I start the next week's POTW.

Light park where from now on a "special" tree grows, which at night illuminates the surrounding area.The metal sculpture is equipped with several movable particles moving in the wind, and with artificial lighting, with its shape resembling a tree with a mighty trunk and a branched tree crown.
