The following tidbits were shared on two other threads of mine (https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/12-post-your-photos/260768-travel-scotlan...62-images.html and https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/137-photographic-industry-professionals/2...nt-sale-2.html), however I doubt many of you even saw those, so I wanted to share this here with you.
Jenny had been bugging me to get some of my images printed for our bare walls for quite a while (over a year lol). Because I hadn't even gotten any before, we were about to get our first print for the house (I know....I know)
So, I asked her if the image of us overlooking Edinburgh would be good, and after getting her approval, I decided to go for gold - the largest print size that I could order from the partner labs with Zenfolio (where my prints can be ordered from through my Zenfolio website). I went with the largest size to not only have a great "mantle photo" of us, but honestly I wanted to test how the K-3 would hold up to such a huge print, not only for my own curiosity, but to see if it would be worthwhile to offer prints that large for sale.
In good conscience I would not be able to offer the size if I didn't know, so I bit the bullet, and not even a week later (!) it arrived:
Jenny thinking she's Vanna White:
It needed two people to hold it it was so big:
That's a 30x45 inch (76x114 cm) print, aka A ZERO.
And let me tell you - it looks abso-f'ing-lutely incredible!! :D At this size, it's approximately 133 dpi. Even from close up inspection, you can still make out the windows and which ones have blinds up/down. Unbelievable.
I am now, if I wasn't before, 100% a believer in the power of the K-3. Just.....wow....
Anyway, wanted to share that with you all.
-Heie

It sure is - and everybody in the thread is jumping to conclusions. Here is the real scoop: it's a Digital Single Lens Reflex Camembert, and it's going to be delicious.

Wow I love this photo.
Only things that I would think to change would be that things don't seem incredibly sharp. I'm not sure if this photo was planned or you just walked by it. You have a relatively low shutter speed so handheld the camera could blur things up a bit. Other than that, I really think this photo is fabulous. Also, I'm sorry if I'm saying things you already know. Nice job on this!

Pretty cool shot, well done!
Since this is in the critique section: maybe if you make the crop even tighter. Remove some of the bottom right corner, to really bring the focus to the subject. Or even change the aspect ratio (to 4:3?) and just remove the bottom part. But you did well with the layers, the colours. Really feels like a painting, and fits the content (ship, river) very well

I love the dreamy haze and colors on this. Like there was frost on the lens.
