Pentax Photo Gallery - New Entry

My photographic submissions to the Pentax Photo Gallery are on something of a roll at the moment; I have just had another image accepted into the gallery taking my total number of images in the gallery to three.

This image was taken in early January 2010 at Pentre Ifan, an ancient burial chamber sited in the Preseli Hills in northern Pembrokeshire. It was a beautiful crisp and sunny day following a period of snowfall and consequently the conditions were perfect for some mid-winter photography. Several other visitors to the site had left a trail of footprints in the snow, but fortunately, I was able to find a viewpoint that offered an expanse of virgin snow in the foreground.

The photo can be viewed at full size either on my own gallery page or at the Pentax Photo Gallery website.

 

Pentax Photo Gallery Image Acceptance

I have today had an image accepted into the Pentax Photo Gallery. The image, taken at Tenby harbour at dusk before Christmas, was one of two that I had recently submitted for consideration. Unfortunately, the second image was rejected. I now have two images in the gallery.

To mark the fact that I now have multiple images in the gallery, I have downloaded a Pentax Photo Gallery badge (as shown below) for use on this site and on my Flickr profile.

New Gallery Added

I have added a new photo gallery to the site: Tenby At Dusk In December.

This gallery showcases a collection of photos that are the result of a photographic trip I took into Tenby one cold evening in December 2009. Most people who have visited Tenby will recognise the vistas in these photos even though most of these scenes are usually photographed in the summertime when the harbour is full of boats, the streets are lined with tourists and the sun is shining. I decided to combine a desire to try my hand at dusk photography with the idea of capturing one of the most photographed towns in Wales in literally a new light.

I hope you like them.
