Welcome to the 567th edition of Picture of the Week (POTW), covering 16 - 30nd Sept 2019. Let's see what you have been shooting these past two weeks. 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. Feel free to start immediately.

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), but if you are interested and willing to host POTW, please send me a PM, before I contact others.

If possible, the new thread will be linked to the previous one. If the thread doesn't start, please contact the host, via PM.

HI Folk

My apologies, this is a tad late. Kicking us off- A visit to Rietvlei Nature Reserve yesterday.

Just a couple of commute photos from last week, haven't photographed much since

Thanks for hosting again, Noel.

These images were captured with my K-S2 and an older Pentax 100-3000mm lens.

The red-tailed hawk, named Nova, was exhibited by a falconer at an event in Midland, Michigan.

Best wishes to all.
