Awww shucks...
Thanks WPRESTO , Rupert & Frederick!
The gear and the subjects make it all too easy... I feel I have been blessed with good copies of lenses that I could actually afford, especially the DA*300 and D FA100 I purchased from a forum member on our great classifieds section, and my repaired Tamron was always sharp but now it can also AF quickly... The K-1 is a dream to shoot. I can't believe I'm about to hit 8K so soon on my "new" camera already... and I feel like I am just beginning to get a clue of this thing's potential.

Where do I start? The first has a artful watercolor appeal to the bokeh, the birdie looks almost as delicious as the excellent food composite below it, (that was just for you Rupert, LOL) and the last one is the real stunner for me. That wind turbine sittling all by itself, dead center by my reckoning, but with the prop center in the upper third and the sun spotting it, shows that you know when and how to use and also break the rules. Nice one!

Too cute, great shot. Who knew so many variety of squirrels. I saw some giant black ones in Canada... they were like little bears. LOL.

A yurt. Yes that's a campfire burning out behind the car. The person had been sitting out at the fire earlier, -9ēC is no excuse not to sit out on your picnic table and warm up by a fire..
A sunset
Wow, a real productive day! All great but I'm a sucker for the macro and that lake shot in particular.

By the way, great series on your furry friends... I have one in the queue to keep them company soon. Yours look so happy, always smiling, must be all that sap.
