My first Pentax dslr
Lens: Pentax 18-55mm Camera: Pentax K-X 

I am a newbie to photography, but I am enjoying it oh so much!!!! The Pentax K-X was my first dslr. I was almost depressed when it quit working! I recently purchased a K-R and I am thoroughly enjoying it. The photo I entered was taken at a local auto salvage. It was such a unique shooting experience! I would LOVE to have a K-3 in the silver. I adore the many comments I get every time I pull my white camera out at my daughter's basketball games, softball games, the park, etc. Everyone else just blends in to the sea of black Nikon and Cannon! NOT ME!!!!!!

Nice self portrait. Not very revealing, yet enough. Tough subject for one who spends all their time behind the viewfinder.

I quite like this photo. Always nice to see a white Pentax DSLR! And it contrasts the orange and red of the car and rust nicely.

I nominate this photo.

This is the kind of creativity that I want to see from our finalists. So I second Na Horuk's nomination

Thanks so much for the compliments and nominations. I really wanted to name the photo "mirror mirror on the trunk". I'll get the hang of all this someday, but in the mean time, I sure am having fun practicing.
