Luckily trolls are slow creatures . Both in body and in mind so I had plenty of time to take photo and get to a safe distance before it discovered me.

Ha! Great find

Catching up with some recent K-S1 bits and pieces. These are all with the Super Takumar 20mm.

Took the K-S1 to my trip to Columbus, Ohio last week... it's the perfect travel camera, nice and small

I didn't even feel the need to take a super-light lens with me this time.

Some more fun with the K-S1... and the DA 16-45. All at 45mm, I seem to use that focal length a lot... no wonder most of my prime lens usage is with one of my 50s

The nectar levels on my hummingbird feeder are dropping rapidly, and this shows why (shot wide open from about ten feet away with a DA*300/4 on the F 1.7x TC = 510mm/6.7, which gives just enough Depth of Field for one bird).

I was taking some colorful flower photos, but forgot that the camera was in monochrome mode. This shot is just a JPG shot from the K-S1 and D FA 50mm f/2.8 macro lens, cropped.
