Its interesting, because it forces you to really think about place and setting to get the most out of the spherical image. I'll be on vacation into the beginning of October, but will be posting images in the Daily Challenges with it

Missed yesterday due to crazy schedule this week, (getting home at 11pm, leaving for work at 5:30am) but by the end of the week things should be calming down. Brad, I will do that context shot you asked for.

I have finally sprung on a lens I have considered, but repeatedly rejected, for a few years.

The shipment from Japan probably won't arrive in Australia until this Friday, so I am unlikely to see it before the middle of next week. I'll make a decision about a late entry then.

Did you get it? Is it a beauty? When will we see pics?

Hey all - this concussion (from Monday, 9/3) is not going away as quickly as I would have liked. I'm still experiencing some fogginess, and my "mental bandwidth" is noticeably reduced. I've only taken a handful of photos since then - I just don't seem to have much "oomph" left outside of work right now. So I'm out for the month.

I will make sure that the "Single In October" thread gets posted at the appropriate time, so don't worry about that.

Sorry to hear that - post concussion syndromes are tough for some people. If you haven't heard there are some therapeutic yoga instructors that can teach breathing and meditation that may help once you are released for this type of activity. Let me know if you can't find any info and I'll ask my wife to find someone close to you to recommend.

It should arrive today. I expect Single In October might be populated with images of birds and other wildlife....

Have been away from the Internet for a week, on a Disney cruise. When I'm finally done travelling hither and yon and have a few sane quiet moments, I will choose a photo from each day of my travels and post it in the appropriate Single In subthread.

There is hope Sandy I received my delivery today, self indulgent unboxing photo to follow, D-FA 70-200 2.8 to add to my FA 80-200 2.8.
I sort of feel like I will be using the K3 and 50-135 next to the K1 and 80-200 for the next couple of weeks, should be fun

As much as I loved the DA*50-135 (now gone to Canberra), the big rig really is next level!
