I haven't been home for a couple of weeks but I would think the fall colors are a few weeks away yet. Here in Hawaii it is georgous.

Thanks for the advice you guys. I went this morning and shot with the 50-135 lens. I need to get the filter that was mentioned. The shots certinally needed to be shot in manual mode prior to the sunrise. I took a lot of photos at different settings. Yes there was a lot of flare with the 50-135. It was very dark so it was a challange to change lens in the wind too. here are two shots that I liked. You can critique or photoshop to improve if you like.
Being a new guy to this stuff I appreciate all the advice, thanks.

Thanks Gary. I will check out the falls photo. It must have been spectacular in April there was record amount of water this past sprin form the snow melt. snoqualmie is a beautiful place I'll see if I can post a falls picture of mine.
I will need to read up on how to use the bracketing on my K10d. Yes I do have a tripod and plan on taking it to the summit in the morning.
Thanks again for the advice.

I am planning on going to the Haleakala crater on Maui tomorow and would like to have any thoughts on how best to capture a nice sunrise pic. I have a K10 with an 18-250, a 50-135 2.8, and a pentex 50 1.4. Wich lens is the best to use and what shuld I know to best capture the moment at the top of the world in low light in the morning. I am relative novice but take direction fairly well. Thanks if you can help.

I have had my K10D for a year and was wondering if it is time to update the firmware? Somewhere on the Pentax site there is new firmware that can be downloaded for the K10D. Has anyone downloaded this and has there been any problem doing so? Is it a good idea to do so and what advantages are there to the new firmware?
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
Thanks

I saw some pictures that were done in soft focus. Anyone know if that is a setting that is done on the K10d camara or in photoshop or other editing proogram.
Thanks
Steve

I agree with Mike H. I have the 18-55 kit lens and purchased the DA 18-250 and find it to be a great addition. I am a bit of a novice and this lens covers most everything I do.
Good luck

Looking forward to getting some ideas and sharing a few too. I have been looking at all the differrent postings and it seems there is much for a novice like me to learn. I love mu K10D and all the accessories with it.
