Hi Greg,

Just curious here, what software do you use to process your images. The level of detail you are pulling from the KP images is outstanding.

Hi Rondec, just curious if you're using a polarizing filter on your sunrise/sunset shots? The blues in your images are oh so nicely saturated.

For an f3.5 ultra wide-angle lens, you have managed to coax out the Bokeh on the fencepost image. Considering you shoot with an APS-C camera, this is even more impressive. (And the Bokeh doesn't look half bad) Am enjoying your photography showcasing the DOF characteristics of many Pentax and Third-Party lenses. Now if I can only convince my wife that an SMC-DA 55mm f1.4 should be adopted into the lens stable. (To my eye, excepting the new SMC-DFA 50mm f1.4, the DA 55mm is the Bokeh king)

Again! Great sharpness and detail on this SMC-FA 24-90 + K5 image. You should have been featured as a Pentaxian back when Pentax was highlighting prominent users. Now, being a KP owner, I have no excuses. ��

Wonderful capture. I've not yet had the pleasure of photographing a Northern Flicker, but it's surely on my short list.(Relatively common in Minnesota where I live)

Nice Series of images. Your SMC-A 28mm f2.8 acquits itself well with these nighttime images made with the K1.

Beautiful shot of Lassen NP, Greg. The K5 images (16MP) with the 24-90 zoom are impressive, even by 2023 standards.

One of the first images I captured with this wonderful lense. I initially didn't think much of this image, but then I went in for a pixel-peep. Holy Buckets, Batman.
Unexpectedly awesome resolving power. Replaces the venerable Sigma EX Macro 105mm f2.8 in the lens stable. Definitely a keeper, this one.

"Gone to seed" - I was experimenting with large aperture close ups, and rather like the resulting bokeh. Handheld, no filters.

Hope you enjoy these. This spring's been very productive for birding. All images w/KP, DA* 300mm f4.0, & HD Pentax-DA 1.4x AW AF Rear Converter. Very happy with this combo for now.

Stopped off on the way to the wildlife refuge and found a great location for sunrise photos. Was excited to see the sky perfectly reflected in the lake's surface. Enjoy.

First Trip to the Canadian border.......definitely worth the drive from the Twin Cities. The Sigma 10-20mm f3.5 plays nice with the KP. (Even if a bit chunky)

A fun outing with the KP this weekend. Spring is finally starting to show up in the Northland.

The weather was abysmal, so I decided to experiment with some intentional lens movement (handheld).I got lucky and captured this on the second try. The next 25 tries were junk.

A few images from earlier this winter (in January before the bottom dropped out and Minnesota's climate resembled Antartica). No filters used, shot with the SMC-FA 20-35mm f4.0 or Sigma EX 10-20 f3.5.
The KP works well in colder temps, as long as you keep the batteries warm and pop them in when you're ready to shoot. I've been working on my PP flow, hope these appear more natural. Stay warm, my friends.
