Re: PESO - Merc number 2
Thanks to all who responded (after I went to bed), some very kind comments. I originally had this as a B+W conversion, and oddly enough, square. The blue lines presented themselves better on the image than in person, so I went with the colour version. I was mainly interested in the (straight, curving, circular) lines.

Re: Wireless/Wired Shutter Release for the K10D (ZigView R3 UT)
I wanted to find information about wireless/wired remotes for the K10D. I'll just post a link to the DPReview thread I created, no point in duplicating the text ... you can answer here if you want. http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/readflat.asp? forum=1036thread=26456967 Pentax makes a wired remote that will do what you want. So does Canon, the E3 remotes for the Rebels are compatible with all Pentax DSLR's. I have no experience with the Zigview. The Pentax Cable Switch CS-205 (and Canon Remote Switch RS-60E3) wired remotes work exactly like the on-body shutter release and add the nicety of a lock for the release button, allowing extended time exposures on Bulb without having to keep the button pressed. The Canon one is a little cheaper and has a longer cable. The infrared Pentax Remote F allows only single exposures per press of the button, you cannot elect continuous drive mode while using the remote. Other things about it: - It will hold the shutter open for as long as you hold the button down in Bulb exposure mode. - The body can be set to release the shutter with or without AF focusing first (the default is without). - If the body is set to 3sec-remote, it does the mirror pre-fire like the self timer mode with the on-body or cable remote releases. - If the body is set to auto-bracket, you must press the IR remote's button for each exposure in the bracket sequence.

Re: Wireless/Wired Shutter Release for the K10D (ZigView R3 UT)
- Original Message - From: Cristi Subject: Re: Wireless/Wired Shutter Release for the K10D (ZigView R3 UT) The ZigView product is tempting because it's both a wireless and wired shutter release. I wanted to know if anyone owns one and can comment on it's functionality. Also, the Pentax remote does not have a bulb setting. I can't comment on the zig view, I try to stay away from third party equipment. The Pentax K10D does have a bulb setting, the wired remote has a switch lock, and the shutter can be locked open in bulb using the wired remote. I don't know what more you would want from the equipment, it will do exactly what you are asking.

Re: PESO - Abandoned Chimney
I was thinking 1890's to about the 1930's. Rubble stone began to go away when labor became more expensive than cast concrete, or uniform brick. Around 1940 it building a fireplace became a trade job as opposed to a craft job, so bricks pretty much replaced rubble stone. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: In a message dated 1/22/2008 10:12:51 A.M.
