Thanks.  The most important thing is to shoot in manual and watch your
histogram.  It would be nice if Lightroom allowed a bit more adjustment
in terms of temperature and tint, but you can extend it a bit by
tweaking the slope/end point of the tone curve for specific channels.
Another thing to keep in mind is to lean harder on the ISO than you
think you can get away with. I realized after the fact that 7568-7591
were shot at ISO 8000.

Noted. I'm glad you mention the use of higher ISO; so many publications say
how poor images become - often beyond 1600 - but the truth is modern DSLRs
are frankly astonishing way above that, and as proved in your set.

Between the K-5 sensor and lightroom's noise reduction, you can get pretty amazing results. I don't know if you know the trick of using the fluidr interface rather than the flickriver or flickr, but it shows the exif data next to the image:

There is one frame at 1250, two at 2000 and the rest are 2500-8000.

I have lost many more photos due to slow shutter speed or missed focus/insufficient depth of field than I have to too high of an ISO.
