Well done, Rick. I also have an FA 80-320 - IMHO quite an under-rated lens. I "upgraded" to an HD 55-300 a few years ago but often wonder why, although the 55 make it a little more versatile. Alan C On 25-Apr-22 10:20 PM, Rick Womer wrote: We have a red maple in front of our house, whose

We have a red maple in front of our house, whose seeds are developing colorfully. Today I photographed it through a third-floor window with the K-5 and my 80-320 lens. https://rickwomer.smugmug.com/2022/April-2022/Flowering-Trees/i-Nxc9TW4/A Comments always appreciated! Rick -- %(real_name)s

Excellent set, Paul. I love the geometry and composition of the sentinel. Setting the sparrow in the forsythia bush cretes a marvelous little scene; that is a great catch. I love the cherry tree; it is a gem (the tree and the image). Dan Matyola *https://tinyurl.com/DJM-Pentax-Gallery
