Thanks, everyone, for your input. Very interesting. I use the newer 70mm on my KP and find it very utilitarian. But, my favorite of Jun Hirakawa's lenses is my 31mm. It's really hard to beat for landscapes. I can't wait for the next tip.

On a sunny July afternoon, I shot a few Gold Finches darting about a thistle bush. You can imagine my delight when I reviewed the shots at the end of the day and found this series of frames. I hope this makes you smile, or maybe a little bit hungry. :lol:

Nice technique. Unless people "View" your photo, they probably don't appreciate the water smoothed out. Well done.
If I may be helpful, I think you should have focused precisely on the Palais des congrès building. I don't trust the "Infinity" setting on any lens. The manufacturers make the lens go beyond infinity so you can precisely focus on infinity. One more idea-to get a larger depth of field, I would have moved the ISO to 200 and stopped down to F16. Good luck in the contest and congratulations on your graduation from photography school.

In the US, we call this bird "The Great Blue Heron". Nicely done. One of my favorite subjects.

According to The Cornell Lab the Cassin's Finch is a southwestern bird. So, when I spotted a couple of them in the Bong Recreation Area in Kenosha, Wisconsin I was glad I had brought my K-1 with the 300mm lens.
I didn't get to take many pictures in 2023 as I was receiving chemo and radiation treatments after cancer surgery, but this shot was just about all I needed to make my year.

I think the beauty of the reflection in the water actually rivals the beauty of the water lily flower its' self. Hope you agree : )

Thank you Joel ! For putting in a word for the film camera idea. For putting in a word for full manual controls. For that rugged Pentax build. And, of course for the K-mount pleading.
All great to hear : )
