Thank you, Paul!
All in all, I feel it was worth the effort to get out and take photos
yesterday.

Hi all,
Rather than hang out with friends and drink beer today, I decided to take the
K-x out for a stroll. I actually used something besides my A-50/1.7 or K
50/1.4, believe it or not. This time, I used my crusty old Tokina SZ-X 28-200
f/3.5-5.3. I really don't know why I don't use it more often. As far as I'm
concerned, it's one hell of a lens -- a much better performer than any of my
auto-focus zooms.

That set doesn't suck.
Thanks, Larry! That's precisely what I was hoping to accomplish.
My favorite is the first one:
IMGP5651-1
That was the shot that made me decide to go on the photowalk. It was in my next
door neighbor's backyard, and the tree was teeming with bees. When I managed to
catch one and actually get it in focus, it was a foregone conclusion.
I love the luminous quality in the square one of the tulips:
IMGP5687-1
If I were markbaiting though, I would have phrased it "Walt, I love your
tulips", but I've got better taste than that.
I owe you one, if I can ever muster some semblance of good taste.
I even got a shot of some fungi for Larry.
And a well done shot at that.
Thanks! I thought of you the moment I saw it -- well, after I wondered whether
or not they were hallucinogenic and decided against taking the chance.
As usual, comments, suggestions and critiques are heartily encouraged.
