The horse occupies a special place in the hearts of Moroccans. It is highlighted at festivals and ceremonies and has an ancestral spiritual significance.

On the lighting and background: if you wanted to convey a stronger sense of that "explosion" I think you could have used the same kind of framing, with stronger flash on one side to create deep shadows on one side, maybe with a strong continuous light behind (but not directly behind) the pod to create some light fringing. Play with strong shadows and contrast if you're unsure of how to approach it more creatively, as your current rendition may seem a bit too evenly lit for the concept you were going for.

The floating effect is perfect for it, though, as the purpose of those seeds is to spread floating through the breeze.

Your series is excellent proof of the much maligned "equivalence" concept. All cameras of different formats can readily take the same kinds of pictures over a broad range of angle-of-view, depth-of-field, shutter speed, and noise/graininess. It's only at the edges of the parameter space that one format or another becomes easier or more feasible.

If you want the K-1 to "win," then repeat the series at night with a full moon, go ultrawide, go for super-shallow DoF, or print larger than 40" x 60". FF-users have an easier time with wide angle, low light, shallow DoF, and super-high resolution.

If you want the K-3 to "win," then repeat the series on scenes smaller than 36mmx24mm (which add the hassle of extension tubes for macro above 1:1 on FF), twitchy little birds, sports-action, and the like. APS-C-users have an easier time with telephoto, macro, and high FPS.

No single format is universally better unless you restrict your photography to certain niches.

But of course they wouldn't just give away the blueprints to their competitors ;)

Anyway, since it looks like Venus is starting to become a more established brand, I have added a dedicated category to the lens database:

Venus Laowa Lenses for Pentax: Current Prime Lenses - Pentax Lens Review Database

Specs have also been uploaded for the 100mm.
