Being new again to Pentax after a 10 year hiatus, I don't have many images on the web made with Pentax gear, but I would very much like comment on some images I have posted recently. Unlike several other forums I have being member of, this one seems filled with folks willing to voice there opinion of others' work ;)

Nice tonality, interesting contrast between the flowing water and the rock. The
composition doesn't work for me however, not abstract enough, or too abstract for
the subject matter. I also think that there should be more, either another stone
or more water in the frame.

I think this is the best of the lot, but I would have gone with a tighter crop. Simply removing the left 25% of the frame gets rid of the distracting out of focus arm in the foreground and draws you into the scene.

I like this shot, nicely balanced, maybe too balanced. The overall image gives me a feeling of peace, although I your second shot better. It's always tricky to split a frame into quarters like this but with the Sun slightly off center it works for me.
