It may not be what I'm best at but at least it was a learning experience and the clients were happy with the results.

I don't know about your kissing but your shots are kicking! I love the high contrast you gave this series. It accentuates the muscle/hair/skin of the athletes very well.

Well yeah I think my kissing could use some work since I'm fairly out of practice but thank you! I was definitely trying to accentuate those attributes and since I found all the crazy Florida colors to be distracting I figured why not go B&W.

+1...the "grittiness" of the B&W processing here definitely enhances the shot and if the customers are happy then all the better.

More shots from my Vietnam travels. These were taken through the window of a van belonging to the driver we hired to take us and other extended family to Phong Nha-Kẻ Bàng National Park. 13 of us made the trip and it is about a 3.5hr drive from Hue toward the North and slightly West. It was not the best time of day or situation for photos and I typically never have my camera out while in a moving car (perhaps because 9/10 times I am the driver) but they do give a sense of the beauty of the countryside and surrounding mountainous landscape. 35mm Ltd again ( I'm beginning to wonder if that lens ever came unglued from the front of my K01

)

Lovely shot - sandy formations nice composed, love to colors. K-01 did a great job here - however how did it survived the sand in the air ? After all it is not a weather sealed body. Did you had any issues with sand in wrong places after shooting or avoiding changing the lens was enough ?

BTW. Welcome to forums

gda - nice shots from another part of this world. Pretty clear considering you were in a car at the time.

Shot with a Tokina ATX Pro 20-35 f2.8 Don't wish to spend the money on the HD 20-40 or a FA31 right now and started using the Tokina as I like the range. Incredibly fast autofocus.

From last summer with the A 50 / 1.2 . Looking forward to growing more of these this year.
