This doesn't have much to add to location, but it seems to be the appropriate place to compared to anywhere else to add this comment. The range of equipment is quite varied, but there seems to be a preponderance of K-5 variants, seven in fact, with the K-1 following with three,  two *ist-D

When I was running the mini-lab, about the lowest I could go & still give the customer an acceptable print was 150 ppi/dpi. And the customer's just didn't want to hear it. "But it looks great on my phone/camera/fakebook/AOL ... Why can't you print it so it looks like that?" On 9/4/2019

I agree it is a really lovely gallery... my personal fave is Brian's  "Eruption"  reminds me of a Winslow Homer painting.. Dan,  taken in Ft Walton Beach. My nephew was a retired Air force major and he and his wife  lived there for many years.. I visited in November of 2001 for Thanksgiving.

Most of my bird photos are shot with the 150-450 and the 1.4X converter. It’s a great combo. I get a little bit of vignetting in the corners but usually crop it out. If I need the full frame, it’s easily fixed. Paul > On Sep 5, 2019, at 6:21 AM, Jan van Wijk wrote: > > Hi all, could use some
