It was a glorious late Spring day in Dunedin today and I headed out to the Botanic Gardens to take a few photos. Mainly some test shots with my Pentax K2. I picked up a practically as new edition of the camera for a song recently. It’ll be turning 50 next year.

I haven’t developed the film yet – black and white. I think I overexposed the first few shots as it was Fomapan 400 and as you can see from the digital shot above it was a very bright day. I was shooting in aperture priority. Once I realised that, I stopped my lens down to the f/8-f/16 kind of range and started getting shots below 1/1000.

Anyway, lovely day, photos taken, blog entry completed.
