Spotted on my lunchtime walk

[Christine Aguila]

Hi Charles:  Colors look dull, flat & I thought the lettering looked reddish 
instead of orange.  When you mentioned orange, I was a little surprised. 
Hope that helps.  I do like the shot though.  Charles, when I first got my 
K10D I struggled with WB & color and all that too, then things got a lot 
better--I got smarter & started making better decisions about what buttons 
to push ;-).  But I'm so in love with the camera now.  My wish for you is 
that you come to have the same affection for your K10D.  Also, did you 
upgrade to 1.3 firmware?

I say all this because you just bought this camera, right?  I've got that 
right, right?  :-)
Big cheers, Christine
