 Originally posted by TinaS  I've been obsessed with mushrooms lately!  Skank and Mr Bassie...Two of my favorite shooters here at PForums....fantastic shots from you both here in the Toy Camera place!  You guys are greatly appreciated here! I have not been Toy Camera shooting much lately. I have been trying to get prepared for the K1 that arrives tomorrow....thanks to Mrs Rupert! Hi gail, you have a package coming tomorrow. Estimated Delivery Date: Saturday, 05/07/2016 UPS Even though I will be a Pro starting sometime tomorrow, I will be back here with my Toy Camera shots soon. I still love Toy Cameras, but need to be the Pro I told Mrs Rupert I would be if she would just get me the K1!  Along with being a Pro, she is insisting that I also keep the squirrels away from her plants  ....X10  Regards! | |

A non-pro cellphone shot - most everything here was underwater during the winter. The road leads to a park, which is still flooded.  | |

Tonight I took the X30 to see a New Orleans brass band called the Soul Rebels:   On the way out I noticed the James River was high from all the rain today so I attempted a half-second handheld shot for a little motion blur on the water:  | |

Originally posted by Mr Bassie Tonight I took the X30 to see a New Orleans brass band called the Soul Rebels: Originally posted by skankin_giant Rupert please give us a link to any photos you post with the K1, interested to how that will turn out. You do understand that I will be a Pro with the K1, right? I may have to start charging to see pixel shifted squirrel shots, but Otis says they will always be free for you guys to view! A few X20 from Mothers Day yesterday..... Bought these for my Mom five years ago and they have multiplied and bloom every year the week before Mothers Day! What was one plant is now several.   Our oldest grandson surprised Mrs Rupert with a Mothers Day dinner. He is the apple of her eye, so she was thrilled!  When they are together they are all smiles!  More Mothers Day flowers!  Jeffrey gave Mrs Rupert some very unusual flowers...never seen anything like them before. Supposedly they only bloom every 5 years. They are heavy leafed like regular tulips, thick and waxy, and just stunning in real life. French Ruffled Tulips   Was a great Mothers Day for my Mom and Mrs Rupert! Regards! | |

I don't do much printing, but I did just print a couple of those of Mrs Rupert and our grandson after a little processing and they came out great. You know, 12 MP is plenty for 5x7 prints and when you don't need studio quality results. It is another reason why Toy Cameras are so damn handy. I'm not even sure I'm gonna like being a K1 Pro  ....seems people are already piling on me for being an elitist and bullying the "little guys" with APS-C and Toy Cameras...and you guys know I'm not like that. Now I am afraid to even use the K1 for fear of being attacked. I should have thought before I leaped......Otis keeps hollering out..."Don't listen to the little people, pixel shift squirrels and don't worry about them!" I feel torn.... Regards! | |

Great looking shots, Skank & Rupert! Another non-pro, obviously amateur X10 photo  | |

| Originally posted by paulh X10 again.... ........the X10 is really working well for you. I took my K1 out yesterday and for what I was doing immediately realized I needed the X10/X20 instead. A big bulky FF camera is not what we need when out and about to capture moments. Long live Toy Cameras! Squirrels may now demand FF shots, but people like a Toy Camera much better and are more willing to pose for one. Regards! | |

Been cutting about on the bikes.... Was up in Northumberland with my "road" bike exploring the coast of Northumberland. I could really use a jersey pocket camera, the One-Plus X camera isn't really cutting it for me. The saddle bag worked its way loose.   Got home at took my IGH bike off on the coast to coast mineral tram way, some nice off road bits along the way  Cheers, Steve | |

So my sister found my 1st digital camera the little Panny FX500 (well it's a 520 as I bought it in the Middle East)   Thought it would make the perfect jersey camera to take out on the bike..... well I was going to go Dartmoor today for a practice ride for my mountain bike leaders course, took the camera out of my pocket.... left the battery at home!  But apart from the lack of camera and getting filthy it was a good day. More bike picks I'm afraid...     Maybe I should work on my tan....  Cheers, Steve | |

Thanks, Dartmoor is lovely, was a nice ride but hard in places, I quite like cross country but not a big fan when it starts to get technical down hill. Well they were better than a 2hr drive back in these sock, which match my bike.....  I got a bit stuck...  I went ass over tit at the end of a down hill section, switch off for a second and my wheel disappeared into a ditch..... no major damage, just a graze on the leg and one across my stomach where my handle bars caught me. Cheers, Steve | |
