Hi all,
Just wanted to share these photos from yesterday. There's a little
redundancy, but not overmuch. The only real interesting tidbit is that
I took the K-x fitted with the Promaster 70-300 f/4.5-5.6 along with
the K20D fitted with the A 50/1.7 in order to have some reach, and it
wasn't until the end of my photowalk that I discovered that I'd had my
ISO on the K-x set to, get this, 6400! In broad daylight, under a
mid-afternoon sun with a cloudless sky! I don't know how it got that
way unless I accidentally hit the magical combination on the 4-way
while squatting down to take a shot with the K20D.
In any event, the shots turned out relatively well, all things
considered. Though, I was disappointed to see the blown-out highlights
in the butterfly shots. Still, all in all, I can't complain as I got
at least a few decent shots at the expense of a little shoe leather.
Anyway . . . here.

I have to say, I like that Promaster 70-300 more and more as I come to
use it more often.
As always, comments, critiques and suggestions are eagerly solicited.
Thanks!

Nice set - I love the shots of the squirrel and the pink bicycle. I
guess that at ISO 6400 you did not have to worry much about camera shake!
