Hello all!
My names Joseph, I'm a long time Pentax user!
Digitally, I started with the K100d Super then to the K200d which I still have, and now to my pride and joy the K20D!

I'm looking to learn and improve in my photography and this looks like a fine place to start.

Good day all!

Welcome Joseph to the UHH. Ask a question, and then standby for the answer (or 2 or 3).

Mr. Photog, thank you for the welcome!

Us Pentax users are far and few between, but it is nice to belong to a site that does not condemn due to your camera choice! I've heard horror stories!

Nice pic of you, it looks like it was taken at the Garden of the Gods here in the Springs.

Again thank you ALL for the warm welcome.

JC56,

The Kr is a very nice camera, I have a good friend that picked on up, he also purchased my K100D super for his daughter! If it weren't for him I wouldn't have the new lens I have :0) !!
I also agree that Pentax has poor marketing.

14kphotog,

The gardens are a very distinctive place, I thought it looked familiar even from just the small slice in your picture.
I just tugged through a good 9 inches of fresh snow last Thursday to the top of rattlesnake ridge in the Garden for some nice pictures! Talk about testing the limits of the weather seals on my K20 and lens!!!
I'm glad you enjoyed you visit to our beautiful park!
