For those who even noticed - I'm back! Had a fantastic time in Italy, only three days of rain out of 26 there. Met up with Dario, who went out of his way to rendezvous with me when I was utterly unable to find the arranged meeting-point, then very kindly took us meet with his family at their home, and treated us (four visitors altogether) to local food and wine, then gave gifts to all of us. Can't emphasise enough what a gentleman he is and what a pleasure it was to meet him and his family.
Over 1400 images to go through now, may be able to post some in the next few days, but work calls, of course. Limited Pentax content - my *ist-D worked flawlessly throughout, apart from one night after getting soaked in Venice, Jan's S1 very capable and no issues at all. Saw mainly, Canon, Nikon, Sony and Olympus in use. Only one other Pentax, a K1000. Also a Rolleiflex, Canon T1 and an Olympus OM - one of each.
