Hi Godfrey I enjoy it too when I meet another photo lover or even a Pentax user, thanks fir the nice story.
On your photo, something with the light on the face irritates me: I see a shadow just below the nose going over the mouth and down to the neck which I do not like at all. I would like to see the hands too. Are you bigger that this man, the shots seems to be taken slightly from above? And I have a general question Godfrey: You never responded to my comments and other emails including some questions so far, why? I would like to learn from your answers and get a feedback on my comments too. Otherwise it's just a one way street and quite boring for me. greetings Markus >>A nice story: >>Went out for a walk in the beautiful, soft light of this overcast >>Sunday morning, about 6:45am.
