Hi Timo,

I am a Pentax user too and old lenses I have from time before '90 I experiment me too to use on digital.I have a very good Pentacon 200mm.What I find difficult a bit is to control settings and find optimum.Was produce also in DDR and has a very good optic quality.Form time to time I play with it.All my best Timo.

I had a look on google to see what is ''BanzaiTree effect'' on photography but did not found something,can you explain please what is this.</p>

good to know how you work,for most of my macro that has subject in different layers that can not be all in focus I used as you do multiple shots.What I find interesting is way you used few with f8 and mix after with some with f2.8 and I understand well why.About mushrooms this year indeed in my area too was less than before,nature is in change for sure.Thanks for answer,appreciate.<br>

I want to upload a mushrooms photo here but can't do it when confirm this response and photo says is a spam,don't know why.</p>

this looks so attractive,soft light shows all this warm colors very pleasantly.Details are very well seen,especially on under mushrooms,is one of my favorite subject on walks time in forest.I am curious what lens did you used here and settings if possible to say.</p>

In all my photos I used only water,I know that some photographers use glycerine for this kind of photos(I saw few tutorials) that indeed is more easy to stick on subject.I like water that in my opinion is more natural and can repeat few time if do not like position without damage the flower or other subject I had.Sometime is hard to have the drop in position wanted but effort worth it imo and is my pleasure when result is I want.I think also is a bit of difference on reflection between water and glycerine.I try to have each time a new idea and something new to show here and see impressions.</p>

<p>For the moment I am glad to be back on 1.0 that really works very fast and gives me what I want to have from lot of options.In 2.0 that I like how is presented as design as we discussed what bother me very much is the lack of options in way to manage portfolio and search.Was very slow,a page open in 10-15 sec. (compare with 1.0 when I open a page in less than 2sec.)The lack of large view is other major point we want to have again,also why in portfolio the photos are crop and not show in thumbnail in whole size?<br>

Reading comments here I agree what <strong>Gregory and Verena Sava</strong> say,and I support the new things and what you want to do but to be a step forward not back.I am really curious to have and work with new 2.0 improved with our wishes and to have a new beginning in September.</p>

<p>After two days of problems in open folders and gallery seems that the team successfully did a very good job,all is open very fast and not at all problems.Thanks to all of you for this.</p>

<p>I used Fractalius for some of my flowers work and at the beginning I had bad slow results.After few exercises I saw that ,as Jack said,if I work in PS the photo with all I want and the last to be fractalius,before use it I resize it usually to 800,900pix and the program works well, roughly 30seconds process time.You can see my <a href="/photodb/folder?folder_id=852708">INTERPRETATION FOLDER</a></p>

Yes,it is happen to me too in this moment.I hope to be solved this soon as possible.

Yes is true,I cannot access the photos, due to a server error in last two hours.
