I have one, it's no where near as spectacular as others, but it is one of my very first attempts at a silhouette :D

Great work Chris!!! Will certainly make shopping easier now, especially with my first new lens purchase coming up in December :D (oh how I wish it was December already)

I am so sorry to hear about your car, I hope there isn't too much damage.
In Australia, the most common target for car thieves is the Holden Commodore....(badged Chevrolet or Pontiac in America??)
guess what I own LOL, and yes I have had my fare share of thieves stop by too :(
It is a sad world that we live in!

Thank you all for the lovely comments, it is great to be here and it feels good to share. I don't know what took me so long to get here :D
JCSullivan - No offense taken, am always happy to receive feedback. I do tend to slightly overexpose my shots but only through editing, in camera, if anything they are under. I shoot in RAW and edit accordingly, but I guess in my quest to find my 'style' I just like to push that ever so fine line. When printed I find they come out just that tad darker so the slight overexposing works well for me :D
Mel - LOL No more kids for me I am afraid, I don't think I could manage any more, I don't know how anyone does it. Sure they make great photo subjects, but only when they are cooperating :D The shot of my eldest was taken as he was trying his hardest to get away, I was surprised I actually managed to get it in focus :) I love them to bit's though!
Thank you again everyone for the beautiful comments, I look forward to contributing more :) (you will be sick of my boys soon enough, they are my main subjects I am afraid)

It is lovely to meet you Pat, great self portraits :D
It really does look like a great lens. I am considering this lens for my first new lens purchase, I am just worried about all of the bad copies out there, it's all too scary.

Just thought I would share some shots of my boys at the beach, this was my baby's first visit too.
We had a great time despite it being a bit cold and windy, it really was a much needed breath of fresh air :D
All were shot with the K10D and my SMC Pentax-A 1:1.7 50mm
My Boys (50mm, f/4.5, 1/500, ISO 100) 
My Youngest - 4.5 Months (50mm, f/4.5, 1/750, ISO 100) 
My Eldest - 4.5 Years (50mm, f/4.5, 1/500, ISO 100)  |

You could create yourself an action in Photoshop to resize and add a frame (there are a lot of free actions about these days that you could download), and then use Photoshop's batch function to process multiple images. Depending on your skill level you may need to create an action for profile shots and one for landscape shots.
Sorry I can't help you any more, that is as far as my knowledge base extends at the moment. If you like the Photoshop route, try googling for what you are wanting to achieve, you will be surprised at how many helpful tutorials you will come across :D

Great idea Chris, and thank you Wombat, I am also from Adelaide and other than City Cross Camerahouse where I bought my K10D, I wasn't really sure where else to go other than online. This thread has already helped me enormously :D
Thanks again
