Anyway, not a photo I would brag about. Note in particular how much
brighter the mountain's reflection is, or how well defined the mountain
shadows in the reflection are compared to the absent shadows on the
mountain itself. A physical impossibility; reflections are never brighter.
Either he used too strong a ND grad filter or he got too carried away with
PhotoShop (I tend to think it's the latter). These manipulations ruined for

OB Pentax -- Notice the further discussion in the magazine about the MZ-S

press kit so the magazine(s) will mention your new camera some more. All
press is good press....
