Thank you for letting us know, Nick. Very sad news. His work and his tireless effort are not lost. I am thankful that he shared his beautiful images with us.

That's interesting - in Arizona, we call standing dead trees 'snags'.

Pentax z70+DA-35+HP5. This is with the DA-35 at f/2.4.
The z70 and this lens (along with the DA-50) is just a superb combo for 135-format photography on the cheap. I only wish it was easier to get batteries for the z70 where I live. I hope my z70 doesn't stop working anytime soon because I doubt I can find another one for 5 Euro now! (I bought mine complete with an F 35-80 f/4-5.6 for that price in 2012. Seriously.) |

Lubitel and trusty ol' FP4 again. I've tone mapped the scan and added significant contrast, but the amount of detail in the original negative is quite incredible to me. |

This is with the Lubitel's lens at f/4.5 - something I rarely do for a variety of reasons. Lomography 100 color film. This is my fourth roll of color film in 12 months. That might be a new record! :lol: |

Looking out the patio door on a day with decent weather. Lubitel 166B (with FP4 in 135 format, obviously). This is how the image was scanned by my local camera store - in a 6x7 carrier. I like the self-framed look of many of these scans.

Tonight on Galway Bay. This is looking south at the Burren in Co. Clare from Barna in Co. Galway, Ireland. Nex-6, 28-70 and a circular polarizer. Not the greatest camera/lens combo for this, but it's what I had on me at the time.:lol:

Sigma 18-300mm F3.5-F6.3 Contemporary Asking Price
250.00 EUR Item Location
Galway (Ireland) Item Description
Sigma 18-300 mm f/3.5-6.3 Contemporary zoom for Pentax. Excellent (near mint) condition inside and out. Ships with original hood, original caps, box and paperwork.
I bought this lens in the summer of 2016 specifically for travel. It's a great lens in many respects. You can see what I wrote about it back in 2017 using this link. You can also read the complete review right here on Pentax forums: Sigma 18-300mm F3.5-F6.3 Contemporary Review - Introduction | PentaxForums.com Reviews
The best thing about this lens, outside of its incredible range, is the near-silent focusing. On my camera bodies, which are quite old in relative terms (K-5 and K-30), AF works very good in most situations with relatively strong lighting. Even in somewhat dim light, it's still pretty reliable in terms of AF until it's racked out to maximum FL.
So, if I like it so much, why am I selling it? Everything in my world associated with travel has changed (not just due to the pandemic). I'm just not using it enough to justify keeping it. I think someone else will put it to better use.
Please PM me for a quote on shipping. Since everything is a little bit weird right now, I would rather give you a specific shipping cost direct to your door.
