These were taken with a Pentax K10D and 18-55 f3.5-5.6 AL lens. They have all made good 12 x 16" prints although the sensor is only 6mp.
This is the Manor House from the end of the gallop.

A better view of the house.

theCommunion Table in the Parrifh Church of
St Martins in the feilds Weftm tr Where lyeth
the Remames And on Pulling down the
faid Church it was removed hither
in the year 1730
I love 18th Century English!

That K10D and you make good pictures together! I especially like the Ashridge chapel picture.

Too bad that you can't do great photography with an old camera and its kit lens! ;)

When these were taken, the K10D wasn't an "old" camera and the "kit" lens was made by Schneider-Kreuznach for Pentax.
