Very good stuff, Walt. I love seeing that flowering tree -- is it a
cherry, or apple?
Thank you, Bruce! I believe that's a Bradford pear tree, if I'm not
mistaken. They're beautiful when they blossom in spring, and grow really
fast. But, from my experience, you have to be hyper vigilant about
keeping them pruned. Otherwise, they shed limbs like crazy and split at
the slightest provocation.
I like that crumbling window, but I think a more squarish crop, in
tight, might be better. I'd try an 8x10 format.
I toyed with that crop aspect at first, but for some reason, my eye
wanted to see more of the brickwork. I'll have to revisit it since you
mentioned it.
Thanks for the input!

Hi all,
But for the extremely sunny conditions, it was the perfect day to get out on
a photowalk. So, for the first time since winter kicked in, I decided to
take the K-x and K1000D out, fitted with the A 50/1.7 and the Promaster
70-300/4.5-5.6 respectively, and put them through the paces. Here are the
preliminary keepers from the afternoon:

Any input is appreciated. I was just happy to get out of range of the
cordless phone.
Thanks!
Walt
