No doubt! I think my ad was up for less than 10 minutes and the lens then went express mail to you :D I miss having that extra width of the 10-20, but the DA15 is going to travel in a backpack sooo much better, I can't really complain :)
I really like your second shot, wedgetail - the tree framing on the right gives a very nice sense of perspective to the shot, puts everything in size context somehow :lol: More pics!

I did a series of B&W portraits with my son yesterday, mostly with the DA70. But I keep finding uses for the 10-20 that surprise me, and I did shoot a couple with it. This one turned out nicely:

Playing with the 10-20 is far too much fun, you guys. I keep taking shots like this just because I can. That's just not right :D ETA: I don't know why this 1st pic isn't showing up, trying it a different way...
Okay, but then I've taken some that aren't about making your eyes cross, like this one. I quite like the way this turned out, even with the flare (it's one of only 2 flares I've gotten with the lens, but this one is appropriate to the photo):

Really gorgeous use of the strength of the 10-20 perspective!

Okay, wanted to see what the 10-20 could do with, you know, actual sun, cause I've seen some gorgeous work in this thread. The lens did not disappoint :)
Out at the Lake Washington with my younger son:
And how about sharp, saturated occasional flower photos? Excellent *hand rubbing*
For those in the thread searching for polarizing filters of good quality for more affordable prices, I found these 77mm Marumi DHG CPL filters on ebay for $57 and change. A very well reviewed CPL for a very reasonable price :)

I seem to be determined to try out every UWA lens for Pentax. As long as I keep selling one to buy the next, I'm not losing out, at least :) I got my new 10-20 today in the mail, and despite the typically dreary Seattle weather, had to take it out right away! I'm pretty impressed with my copy - it could be sharper (I've seen sharper photos from 10-20s here, so I may look into having mine adjusted) but it's taking such lovely photos I can't complain :)
Second week of the local farmer's market. All of these have been hit with a neutral density gradient filter to compensate for the white-out skies we get this time of year, and many of these are color treated because I may have to live in a gray climate, but my photos don't have to remind me of it quite so much :P I can already see that I'm going to have to get a polarizer as many of you have done. How cheap of a Linear Polarizer can I get and still have a decent one?
ETA: I see this question is already on the table :P

And many local goodies:
