hello s.h. summers,

thanks for the kind comment. i'm flattered that my images conveyed the strength of the pentax system. i have always been happy with my pentax equipment, and are confident in saying that Pentax is back...

happy shooting,

mark d.

Mark, wonderful gallery...I had a great time - thank you. Your photos are technically flawless, have beautiful colors and contrast. Obviously you have a tremendous talent, but your photos also make a powerful argument for the Pentax equipment lineup...I am all but convinced that the K10D is my next camera. Thanks again!

hello dave, victor, and iban!

thanks for stopping by. I am always fond of sharing my surf photos, let alone imparting any info about pentax cameras. to things of which i am very passionate about. kindly send me a message if there are any questions about anything!

Hey Mark,

I have really enjoyed your gallery ... I'm an old surfer that is also into photography as well as a Pentax buff. Your gallery really hit home to me.
I am also very impressed with not only your artistic impression, but your technical abilities, you have really got it down. I'm in the process of getting my own K10D and your images have made the wait even that much harder.
Please keep posting shots here so that we can all continue to enjoy your talent.

Cheers ...

hello arva,

thanks for the kind comment! I generally use no special post process technique for color if the image is shot in "bright" mode. that alone leaves me with pictures i am very happy with. now if the image is flat because of ocena mist or is slightly underexposed, i will apply a "digital velvia" action. do a search of the web and you will find what i am referring to. other than that the images are usually shot and resized for web. that is about it!

thanks for viewing!

Your images have the best colour I have ever seen from a K10D. Do you use any special colour/contrast/saturation settings that are different to the factory defaults? Also, as Jack Simpson has already mentioned, your use of flash is brilliant!

HI Mark,

Great pics and you use of fill-flash is brilliant :)

Cheers,

thank you rodney for the much appreciated comments.

Mark, I really enjoy your photographs. Not only are they well done with regards to light and composition and such but they also seem to express your enjoyment of and appreciation for the sport as well as the people of surfing. You take a lot of candids and each one tells a story. I think it also speaks well of you when people pose for you with a sense that they are with someone who makes them feel comfortable. Didn't mean to ramble on so, but wanted to express my appreciation for your photography and thank you for sharing. Rodney
