Nice shot. But I can't help to think of that clip from Family Guy:

I drove down to the Chowan River yesterday to do a little photography. I took 4 Pentax cameras and a bunch of lenses, two tripods, man I was loaded for bear. As it turns out, I did most of my shooting off hand with the K-S2 and my trusty 10-17 Pentax lens. I shot these on f/22 for the starburst effect of the sun and the reflection in the water. Both are at 10mm.

First photo with my new (to me - but it really is lightly used) K-S2 --- which is surprisingly compact after my old K200D -

I haven't been that active in december as I had hoped I could be, partly because I finally bought new computer parts and put everything together and tested it. I have taken some photos while building it:

Taken with DA 50/1.8 @ f/1.8, 1/60 s
I developed those with DxO Photolab and cranked the CA correction sliders all the way up because there was quite some colour visible where it shouldn't have been. I think I did not remove it from the first picture, though, as there are some green halos still very visible on the edges


Cooler Underside with Sticker


CPU in Socket

The amount and distribution of the thermal paste seems excessive compared to what is usually recommended for other coolers, but it's exactly as recommended by the cooler manufacturer

Heatpipes with Thermal Paste Applied

Being a little concerned with the sheer amount of thermal paste I took close looks all around the mounted cooler, but this view nicely shows that most of it will have done its job of filling in the little gaps between the heatpipes, with the mounting pressure of the cooler pressing out all excess to the side. The picture is taken from the side that showed the most excess looking out.

Mounted Cooler with Pressed Out Thermal Paste

Temperatures are great, so I seem to not have done too much wrong when I installed the cooler.

It was such a pretty day yesterday, I had my "new" to me Sigma 17-70 lens that I bought from this forum on my KS2.
I recently had to send my KS2 for aperture control block repair, it's my constant companion now when I got out.
