I've not been here for a long time, but I was curious and found this long thread. I have 2 K10s. Two of the very first to be available in my area. The camera shop that got them for me is gone, their main competitor is nearly defunct as well. This was the very first image from the K10 in the first box I opened. By default, I suppose that makes this image one of the first ever taken by the K10 in the hands of a private owner. The building was a part of the Anderson School of Management on the UNM campus; was as it too is gone. Torn down and replaced. Perhaps that will make it interesting.

A couple of pics of the Roman aqueduct at Pont du Gard, France. Taken with my K10D and FA 28-80mm. I'm still amazed at the number of shades of green that the K10D can discriminate!

Great shots of some amazing architecture. K10D rules!

K10D with DA 16-45

1) Ruins of the Great Tower, Raglan Castle. This was the keep of the last medieval castle built in Britain :-

2) River Wye Old Bridge, Chepstow. This is looking from Wales into England. Incidentally, the writer J K Rowling grew up in a house beyond the trees on the extreme left of the picture. It is hard to imagine that this 200 year old single track iron bridge (followed by a single track town gateway) was part of the route of the main road from London to Cardiff until about 1968 :-

I'd love to visit there someday - very nice images.

I don't print that many of my photos, but this is one I did. Taken last December with an F35-80:

Another one with the 18-55mm WR (UC).

Can anyone recommend a photo hosting site other than Flickr without all that "You fave me and I'll fave you" stuff? I've been moving towards a slightly brighter, slightly more saturated look recently, and it has started generating comments and faves on Flickr from complete strangers that I feel like I have to respond to (that old British politeness). I'm really happy with Pentax Forums as my only photographic social media fix, so I'd rather host photos somewhere where that's not involved.

Nice one, Dave. IIRC, you can change your Flickr settings to "private". That way only you, and those you choose can view your Flickr feed. I believe you can still link your photos to PF as well.

I’ll second what Paul said.

Setting the albums to private avoids the ‘social’ aspect, yet you can still hotlink your photos here. I do it all the time.

Thanks, Paul and Racer. I'll do that. Here on PF I really value the help and advice that I get from so many people whose photographic talents I admire and whose opinions I really respect. I love it that we've got threads like the K10D Club that have turned into such a fascinating free-flowing conversation. And I really don't want to get drawn too far into the much shallower waters of Flickr.
