After work this afternoon I decided to hop in the car and take a cruise through a small part of southwest Virginia. I head from Galax, where I live, to Comers Rock. It's located out by Elk Creek. Along the way I snapped some shots with a 50mm f2 manual focus lens mounted to my Pentax k20d. I finished up the day on top of Comers Rock, and shot the last image with a 135mm f2.8 manual focus lens mounted to the same camera. Thanks for looking.

The crop factor on this camera leaves everything smashed into the frame when I can't back up too far:) |
