First of all the before photo...
and this is the after...
It was taken with my Sony a-100 (i only got my pentax recently) with the standard lens that came with it
it was edited in photoshop and Perfect studio 3 free
f stop: f/9, exposure time: 1/80sec, ISO speed: 100, focal length: 18mm, max aperture: 3.61 35mm focal length: 27
First of all I had to combine 5 photos to get the panoramic final photo so i did that on photoshop
(File>automate>photomerge)
after that was done i noticed that due to the wonderful weather in the UK there were biiig rain drops on the lens while i was taking the photos so i thought a little editing was in order
So i used Perfect Studio Free and applied a few filters ('good ol blue' under the vintage category to give it that blueish hue, 'cracked paint' x2 under the textures category to give it the look of an old painted wall thats cracking and 'edges to black' under vignettes, grunge vignette light to make it a bit more...alive in a sense because before it was the same tone all over the photo but now its brighter in the center also under vignettes.... and if i remember correctly that was it :)
hope you like the final result

Hi again...first of all thanx for all the help with my previous question.
This one is a bit more important to me and i did try to search for similar topics but i couldnt find any (probably cause i dont know what to look for:()
Is there a way the photos i take to be on the exact right size for printing on A4 paper?
thanx,
Maria

Hi all, im kinda new to the world of Pentax...and especially to flash guns...never used them before.
I got a Jessops 360afd flash gun (a friend gave it to me) and even though it seems to work just fine, it over exposures everything. Any idea what i should do with the settings? i tried alot of options and so far the closest i can get to 'normal' is if i have it on slow trailing curtain sync but that makes the shutter stay open for a while and everything is blurry unless i use a tripod :(
am i missing something or is it just that this flash gun is not compatible with my k-30?
thank you in advance,
Maria
