Since I'm up early (thanx to a call from work), I thought I'd post a couple of shots from my new toy.

Pentax K-x w/Tamaron 28-105 AF

I tried blurring the background in photoshop elements - it still needs some work though.

    Congrats on the new "toys". I think you're off to a good start this year! thumb.gifD

    Thanx Jiro - the Tamaron is actually an old lens that I got for a good price and used with my K1000. It had forgotten that it was an autofocus - what a pleasant surprise when I put it on the K-x.

    Still a lot of options on the camera that I haven't discovered.

    I wonder if selective coloring would make the chairs pop a little more.

    I think it would. But... on your image the background is a bit busy (too many stuff in it) so I'd probably advice you to consider taking a shot at the chairs at a different angle next time. Happy shooting! thumb.gif
