hi everyone, new forum user, but had Pentax Cameras for a while

i currently use a blue K-30 and before that i had my K-r, which i still have and use as a back up or let my 11 yr old son use. i have a few different lenses, mostly sigma, with a couple of pentax lenses and an old 50mm f1.4 manual focus lens thrown in. looking forward to having a look around and seeing what is here

hehehe very true Tas, it seems to be a lovely day here so far

hopefully it stays this way, as i am thinking of finally doing my star trails i have been wanting to do at woody point tonight lol

Woody Point eh? A lovely spot with plenty of open sky, and hopefully the clouds will stay away. The city lights will give you some strong colour in the sky so best of luck.

Was a great sunrise this morning too, fog as well.

Welcome to the board, there's quite a few here from SEQ.

thanks cmohr

i have quite a few photographer friends on other social media sites, but very few shoot with anything other than canon/nikon, so it is good to talk to some Pentax users
