Birmingham with K7

[Dino26323]

Got shots today afterwork but it was dreadful bland flat light again which i hate really even though the pictures may not be much different sometimes. It just makes the experience a chore because the light is bland boring with little chance of something magical with the light happening.
Here are some from today.

Hello Pentax shooters and other watchers. Yes I have shots.
Today I have shots for you. Hope you enjoy.
This time we are back with the old but wonderful K7 and the Samyang 135mm F2 because I used this kit to shoot a lady that asked me to take pictures of her.

Hope you enjoy today's Street world in Birmingham . I shot a lot and could have posted a lot more than 5.

Thank you if you are following this crazy thing. I am running out of ideas but when I get back it is really exciting because I never know what I actually got until I see them.
The couple on the corner i sent them photos. I managed to get their email.

Best of wishes Dino26323

I like this last selection above. each has its own little story to tell.

This is the story PENTUP.
This is a very special person named ERIKA. She is an unbelievable force in front of the camera. A FORCE OF NATURE. A total unique person that is crazy about pictures. I love pictures and she loves pictures. TOGETHER we hope to make magical photographs that will captivate you. I am a very average photographer but with Erica I can make images I could only dream of before.
There is no way to describe Erica except as a force of beauty.

Meet ERIKA who has let me take her picture.

These are some of the photos from our first photographic adventure.
I have been shooting regular with my K5 with my 200mm DA* plus 1.4 converter in Birmingham just lately but for this there needed to be a change.
For Erika I picked my lucky K7 that has on it the Samyang 135mm F2. Hope you enjoy seeing what Erika can do.

Is this the end of this thing.
Today the Pentax K3 iii monochrome is available in Birmingham ( within say 2 days from Norwich store ).
That was my plan. Shoot everyday afterwork until the monochrome appears.

Here are today's. I cannot promise photos tomorrow. I will need to be in the mood but today was great because I was relieved it was all over so I shot a lot that I liked today.
