Very strange post involved for this one. I downloaded Registax to mess with image stacking in case ISON lives up to the hype, and the only real set of interval shots I had was from last Spring taken out the window.

This is the end result of about 200 shots, stacked, ranging from daylight to to near dark.

It almost reminds me of an HDR effect, though its not.

I created a thread in the gallery section, but I might just add some here for those who don't look that way.

I went with some work mates To Kroombit Tops National Park the other day. One of the features is it is the resting site for Beautiful Betsy a WW2 B24 that crashed in 1945 but was only located in 1994. For series of pictures can be found here.

The boys meeting up after travelling to the park. That V8 diesel Land cruiser at the front just is just amazing to drive in the rugged terrain.

The Lookout

This is the tail section.The plane hit the side of the mountain and flipped. All 6 crew and 2 passengers died. No warning was given. No mayday call made. No parachutes were deployed.

The wreckage is spread over a fair area.

This is an example of a Queenslander style farm house. Queenslanders are distinct for their use of a veranda that surrounds most of the house, adding shade and cooling the house. Purple Jacaranda tree behind the house and the fresh white paint caught my eye.

Been a while since this house has been lived in. I am guessing that is a workers quarters to the left. Strangely it is on concrete stumps. Which is odd and belies the age of the rest of the building. It had either been re-stumped in the last 20 or 30 years or relocated. Either is unusual.

My boy today.

Smiling Eyes by -Occasionally Focused-

K-30 with Pentax SMC-M 50mm f/2

It's a bit soft, but there wasn't that much light so I had it wide open.

Manual focus might've been off too.

And ("not again!") a panorama:

Beautiful landscape shot!

Lots of looking in to the sun as we continue to lose daylight in the frozen north.

Liked this one.

p.s. I was born in Grigishkes near Trakai, don't know what my parents did there

, they are not lithuanians though.
And I also liked Birshtonas - nice little town, I was staying there for 2 wks over 20yrs ago. I would appreciate to see pics of those areas If you have some.

Sorry, I do not have anything from Birštonas. My colleague is from Prienai (which is very close to Birštonas) and she is always telling how beautiful Birštonas is. I am planing to go to this town someday, because of its SPA with mineral waters and etc., but I haven't been there yet, because Druskininkai is my main choice for such leisure time. As for Grigiškės... Well, I never had any plans to go there, because it doesn't seem to be an interesting place. Although I might be very wrong. Highway goes almost through the middle of Grigiškės, and I went through there many times going to Vilnius. But thats it.

Here are two more pictures. This time from Šventoji. There are many things wrong this there photos. Actually, most of the thing are wrong, but I simply like them. It might be related with a very good time in there.

PP with Raw Therapee was used.

The K-30's weather sealing really shone when at "The Color Run." I previously had a Nikon D5100 and I would have never taken it there. In fact, I saw another photog there with a large encumbered bag over his camera. He was probably used to it, but I'm glad I didn't have to worry about it, for the most part.
