    Excellent captures with impressive colors. Both of those shots would be a great additions for the respective "A colored thread: RED / PINK" topics, if you‘ve seen those - perhaps you want to share them there as well!

    I was feeling pekid yesterday, so my K-1 mIIs got the day off. I was back at it today, however, and I have a couple of in-camera generated jpgs for you. It was almost like shooting with the K-3III Monochrome, or so I can imagine.

    It was another hot day, but I still got out and picked up a couple images from the town center where we also bagged some ice cream.

    Got a couple of vehicles for you today. They might be crap or maybe not, you tell me.

    @JCDoss I like the crane shot a lot. Very dramatic. Excellent composition.

    So hot and humid today that the MF or even K mounts would take forever to unfog. The small amount of glass in the Pentax Q lenses can be an advantage. The #06 zoom ( approx 80-240 Eq) only took about 5 minutes. Luckily the butterfly stayed around. Original Pentax Q w/ Pentax #06 telezoom. ISO250 F2.8 at 1/250. Slight crop. Don't see many B&W butterflies around here. Glad he waited on me.

    @barondla, I like the intricate wing patterns you captured. Wish I could zoom in on them.

    I tell myself to take as few photos as possible. Then today, I took 21. That's 19 more than I needed. Here's today's catch.

    Jason,

    I like these shots of Kawai. You've done a very good job with the compositions.

    I think the 50mm focal length at very wide aperture and close range (not "macro") is one of the most overlooked and most underrated tools we have. The combination of distinctive perspective caused by the shooting distance and the not-too-rapid fall off of sharp focus region, finally into dreamy out-of-focus background is almost universally appealing. It's great for pet portraits and florals and lots of other situations. I use it all the time for street photography. For human portraits there's a little too much "big nose syndrome."

    Here's one of Poppy who's since gone to kitty heaven, playing "wild cat" a few years ago, prowling in the grass and terrorizing tiny bugs in our back yard. I was using an atrocious old Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 on a Nikon D800E. But I love the image. I've since gotten a much better Nikkor 50/1.8 which I regularly use wide open both on the D800E and adapted for my GFX100S medium format camera.

    A pair of grape images. The harvest should be very soon. Then what am I going to do for photos?

    I took the cameras to the town square today, but was also relegated to pack mule status and couldn't be very spontaneous with the camera. So, I have what amounts to a pair of safeties today. Sorry.
