the troll face was there for a reason ;), that nifty fifty is a really nice lens (and unbeatable for its price, which also is a nice bonus).

Agreed, I would NEVER put 50/1.8 on a K-3.

Norm, it all depends on the white balance and exposure correction, as it seems :)
When I was there myself, I was surprised to find out, that the colors are there, alright, but they're not that bright and exaggerated as usually seen in the pictures, more pastel-y, if that's a word, at least in the lower Antelope.
As for this particular image - I underexposed by 1.5 stops, I liked the mood better this way; in reality it was lighter. as for the balance - pretty close to the real life.

I bet the bats are cursing like sailors, but since it's ultrasound, you just don't hear it.. :)

I really like the colors on (in? me no speak Engrish!) one above the footsteps (seagull) - those blues remind me of film days, Fuji, in particular, and now I sound old.

believe it or not, it's 16-50; the image is heavily cropped. I can dropbox the original PEF, if interested

[moderators - rambling follows. if this is against the forum rules, please remove the post]
regarding the size: I don't know why CaNi feel obligated to build these gargantuan sized FF bodies - apart from feeding the common misconception "that guy has a Big Black Camera, he must be a PRO". ok, there's larger mirror box (is it, actually? depth-wise?) and larger pentaprism, what else? does a physically larger sensor require a physically larger processor? :). I don't see a reason, why Pentax's supposed FF would need to be bigger than K-3. that's just me, perhaps, but N D800 and C eos1x are ugly, ugly cameras. did they do it on purpose?
after all, pentax has built nice, compact 35mm film cameras, and these bodies needed to store FF mirror box, prism, and two spools for film. and the battery. I still think, that MZ-S is one of, if not the most beatiful 35mm cameras ever built. precise, angular, purposeful, sleek lines, nothing redundant, "ripped" like a gymnast, who needs to be strong, but who can't afford an ounce of redundant weight. and weird enough to stand out of the crowd.
OTOH, marketing trumps common sense any day; significant - if not the largest - market share are aspired amateurs, of which most are men - or at least I tend to believe so - and for men, "bigger is better" is chiseled in their subconscious. more megapickles, bigger cameras, huge, huge lenses = more happiness and better pictures, at least till someone with even bigger camera and lenses appears on the stage.
As much as I think that K.R. [sometimes] is a pretentious snob, he got it quite right with "equipment measurbators".

to each their own. give me the best high-ISO-capable camera and I will still try to stay under ISO800, because I just don't believe in amplification. but that's me, equally entitled to have an opinion :)

gray: nice! was this a long exposure or the "multi exposure method" described in the depths of the PF?
