Nice shots! A good endorsement of the Pentax 17-70 (and the photographer)!

Love the colors and contrast this lens can produce. It works bad in a strong front light producing flares. Also sdm focus crashed for the second time.

The 17-70 works very well as landscape lens, with good contrast and very nice colors:

This is one of the best lens I have, wish Pentax updates with a better motor and faster focusing.

Google Photos added some effects, on phone it looks good
