Thanks Ann, yes pretty much small midwestern town, once a meatpacking
Railroad town. Now more retail medical & services place. Our claim to
fame these days is the gypsum mills here produced most of the drywall
for the Mall of America.

Yes Q has raw setting I usually shoot raw + jpg as the files are quite
small. The whole interface is Pentax through & through.

Don --
Familiar ... the kind of place I've stopped so often in multiroad trips
and knew from my childhood.. Our Town.? I like 4 and 5 the very best of
these.. and equally
The first one the least because of the balance across the page, as it
were..

Does the Q shoot raw?

Thanks for the look & comments Alan. The Q is nice for street work & 
with a $15 adapter and the 40mm pancake Pentax lens it is a very 
compact 200mm+ combo, although these wer taken with the 70-200mm Q 
lens, which I will take on a trip next week as a backup tele.


Honest the guy with the cart is a college student. We have very few 
truly homeless people here. It is a small town and the winters are too 
harsh for outdoor life. We do have a men's shelter & a woman's shelter 
which are supported by private donations.

Well, Don, I think that's a great start. That Q does a good job & 
must be pretty inconspicuous. One has to look for the obscure in 
streets. Like the two different spellings of Center/Centre. So many 
small cars was a bit unexpected. Perhaps the guy with the trolley is 
a scavenger so commonplace here? And the dog shots - don't the owners 
mirror their dogs?

It occurs to me that If I am back on the group I should maybe not just 
lurk and silently mutter. I should also post a picture or two. So 
today's offering is a small album called Q Street. All but one taken 
with my Pentax Q while standing on one street corner in my little 
town. The last photo was taken at a college campus on move-in day so 
not someone destitute. C& C welcome & desperately needed.
