Hi Dave: Sorry to hear of your injuries, but glad you're on the mend. And
yes, 17903 is very nice. 8411 has a very dynamic angle and composition
there. I like it. cheers, Christine

Thought I'd re-sub given what I've just read in the archive, and
reconnect with the Pentax faithful.
News from downunder: I hurt my back late last year. The pain was
making me irritable & wore away my tolerance for BS. This was when I
un-subscribed. 3 months of physio got me back on track & I had just
gotten back to pre injury fitness levels when I stuffed my knee. I got
dumped by a wave while working as a voice activated light stand during
a beach shoot (Saved the flash from a dunking though). All these
injuries have seen me put some of the weight I lost back on. But the
knee is almost fixed so in a couple of weeks I'll be back into it.
I didn't shoot much during this time, but here are a few shots I did take:

No new star shots. I've had a several opportunities in recent months,
but preferred to just sit in the camp chair with a beverage & enjoy
the display of stars in the company of friends.
In the last few months I've been focusing more & more on portraiture.
Here are some of my efforts:

... and finally my most recent & a personal fave:

To make this somewhat on topic & have a few photo geek friends who are
Pentax shooters (poor souls) and have had the opportunity to get my
hands on a K7 & K5. I was impressed with the high ISO IQ of the K5.
But not enough to make me rejoin the Pentax fold :-)
Anywho, I'll be around for a bit to see for myself if you guys & gals
are off your meds.
Cheers,
Dave
