Welcome to the 609th edition of Pictures of the Week (POTW), covering the period September 12 to September 26, 2020. Let's see what you have been shooting.

POTW is a great spot to show off six or fewer shots you take or are editing within the thread's date range.
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.

Thanks very much to all previous hosts and to people who have posted images!

Here's a few from me:

Saw this snake on our terrace today. It wasn't moving so I took a closer look. His head was in a drain pipe and it took a little force to get him out. Evidently he'd gone in pursuit of a frog but, once the frog was caught, the snake couldn't squeeze back out again and both perished before I found them. Sad. K-1 II and FA43 Ltd.


The IFC building in Central (with my DA 35 Ltd and the "Auto" mode (which I used for the first time yesterday) on my K-1 II):


Freighter in Victoria Harbour (DA*300 and K-1 II):

Nice photo. I decided it looks like a chair or a bench near the edge of a swimming pool. Am I close?

Thanks for participating! Low turn-out this week. Let's see what happens next week. I'll start the next thread.
