Win a Pentax Limited Lens: Raffle Now Live!

MattBotan · 01-06-2011, 03:30 PM

Hi everybody! Maybe i should have posted this earlier, when i first became a Pentax user (this autumn i received a Pentax MX with 50mm/1.4 as gift from my dad, from his return from Seoul - btw I absolutely fell in love with it forever). Now my K-7 just arrived this Christmas and I'm having tons of fun with it. I'll never give up on film photography, but i needed a digital camera because color sides are really hard to find in Romania, let alone get them developed, so i couldn't really get the colors i wanted from color negative film. I don't regret going for Pentax and i have a feeling I never will. Now if i could just get my hands on at least one Limited lens

( LBA setting in, but i already have the cure - i have no more money

)
All in all I'm just another guy adding to the number of relatively few, but none the less valuable, Pentax Users.
Cheers,
Matt

Hi and Welcome.............

You could get some great Castle pictures your way.

Wasn't Romania - Dacia in the first century AD?

Hi. Dacia was conquered by the Roman Empire in 106 AD. After that began the Formation of the Romanian people, which some say finished around the 6th century. We do have quite a few castles and few medieval fortresses; there's even a medieval fortress in my town. I'll upload as soon as i can find the time to resize some photos.

I think Trajan just needed an excuse to get all that Dacian Gold!

Looking forward to your images...

Ha. I don't know if Trajan needed an excuse to conquer someone. After all, it was during his reign that the Roman Empire stretched the furthest. But he might have needed to ask his mother for permission : "Mooom, can i go and conquer something, pleeease ?!?", "Not today, deary, it's cold outside" - I kid the Roman emperor

. Who knows, maybe Trajan would have been a Pentaxian himself, given the opportunity.
Cheers everybody,
Matt.
