London Pageantry - testing the new camera

[Didache]

Hi all .. as it was a lovely day today I thought I'd go into London and test out my new Pentax *ist DL with a little pageantry. Two photos are attached. One is a salute being taken as part of the "Changing of the Guard" (which is something we Brits do for tourists!) and the other is a Horse Guard.

Cheers
Mike

I reckon you must be pretty happy with the results from the new camera if these are anything to go by.
I'm a Pentax man myself so I should know LOL

Looks like you have a great lens on this too! Nice work Didache, good to see you are out having fun with the new rig! Looks like a good day to be out with it too. As to a specific critique for the images I like the face of the young horse guard. He looks so young and serious. Good detail in the shadow under the hat brim for what looked like a blazingly sunny day. Wait till you try it at night!
