The early bird gets the worm. Let us get started.



Day 5 with SMC Pentax 20mm f/4, on Samsung NX1.

Home made door to my attached shed with the random Soligor tele-auto 135mm 1:2.8 and some silver efex:

A flying visit to post my photo, will get around to commenting tomorrow when I have a day off.


Pentax M 100mm f4 macro.

I have 2 images for today's theme of "three's".

KP + DA20-40

An in camera multi exposure (Average / 5 pics) of 3 Storm Troopers marching in my usual work space. Cloud background added in post as well as a few terrible snow flakes (know when to stop!! geeze)

SMC Pentax 100mm f4.0 Macro

3 red leaves for today


And 3 brown ones


K200D with the Sigma 28-80mm Aspherical Macro lens

Apologies, I completely forgot the theme today. The Newcastle area is forecast to get a real drubbing from the weather on Sunday and as today was reasonable, I hightailed it for the Northumberland coast while I could.



K1 + DFA 28-105/3.5-5.6 I notice with hindsight that I've captured three front doors in the foreground cottages; there are three pedestrians approaching and there are clusters of tri-panelled skylights on distant roofs

This bit of fencing has three separate elements of three. The unpainted bare rectangles on the front post, three right angle slats and three black hinges complete with matching hardware.

Bouldering this morning so 3 shots of the Burbage Valley. K1 with A 24-50.



And a selfie phone shot.

Bit off theme, but who can resist a Beaver dam? EM5/2, 12-40


The beaver dam will cause bank erosion and the park crew brought in an excavator and pulled it down, this is the rebuilt dam as soon as they left. Now they have started a second dam just below this one.



Three photos? does that count?
Here is the swimming hole they have built for themselves. In a few more weeks the park will close and the gates locked. You can hear the Beavers laughing in the lodges.

K-3 with Rokinon 85mm f1.4 AS IF UMC

Oktoberfest in Richmond, VA

Day 5, HD DA 10-17 + K-1

We went looking for turning leaves. I think we were about two weeks too early in our area. Anyway, I found these three SUV's at one of our stops next to a blue barn. There's A B&W version in my photo stream too. Shot with the K-1 & D FA 28-105.

It's starting to get cold at night. Time to keep the house warm and cozy. smc PENTAX-DA 18-135mm F3.5-5.6 ED AL [IF] DC WR, ISO 100, f/5, 3 sec.



Thanks for looking
