Prague? EXIF shows me "Date Taken 2063-11-15 09:49 AM". Wrong camera time (or time travel is real)?
I must have skipped setting the clock in that camera body, or I am telling a fib now because I don't want anyone to find out that I've discovered how to go back to the future (go forward to the past?).

Yes, Prague, the old palace-castle. It's not the original chapel as this church was built long after Wenceslas' death. Possible bits of the much older, original chapel have been uncovered outside, but they aren't much to look at, just the edges of some badly deteriorated stone walls.

There are doors in this room which lead to the area where the Bohemian Crown Jewels are stored. Same story here, you can only see them during a special exhibition which is held occasionally and only lasts a few days. In January they were shown on the occasion of centenary anniversary of Czechoslovakia origination.

Good thing you weren't listening to someone just then . Seriously, that is imaginative and well-executed, but almost all of the images you post are impressive and inspiring.

K-3 and Tamron SP AF 300 ƒ2.8 ED [IF] and F 1.7x AF adapter for 510mm ƒ4.5
ISO 640, ƒ6.3, 1/3200s

I was out briefly today and lucked into adding bird to my "one per bird" photo album, a Red Crossbill. This is pretty typical of their habits, sitting on the top branch of a fir tree. I have another one, that was backlit and not nearly as sharp, not good enough to post.



The guy beside me was hand holding and had the AF-S NIKKOR 500mm F4G ED VR and bragged it was only 3880 grams and easy to hand hold. Having looked up the price for that lens before, I didn't have the heart to tell him my Tammy weighs considerably less, even with the 1.7 attached, giving me 510 ƒ4.5. I just held it briefly and said "very nice." This one was also hand held.

When got my first DSLR in 2012 (K5) I found the experience frustrating in the extreme. I had not taken any serious photographs for over 12 years and was rusty in the extreme.. Only two thing kept me from smashing it with a hammer. This forum and my Pentax 55m f1.8 screw mount lens. The answers I found here by reading various threads and this wonderful manual, screw mount, lens slowed me down and woke up some long dead habits. This is from a few years ago. The lens does not get out much, but it always delivers on whatever camera I mount it on from my Spotmatic II to my K5 to my K1.

Hello,

Here is a good time already that I started to read this thread, from the beginning. I saw some beautiful pictures! Only, to read the exifs ..., I'm on the page ... 271. I think it's time for me to post my first photos with my recent K3.

My feeder creatures, I got pictures of everyone who turned up but, not a lot turned up. It's warm day, every bird that came was pretty casual.
