Thursday afternoon, downtown walk.

Another nice summer like Autumn day, I'd finished my coffee and took a walk downtown. Rather than lugging a 30lb gadget bag, my afternoon walks I opt to carry a single fixed focal length prime lens. Today I grabbed my Pentax ☆istD, with my SMC Pentax-M 85mm f:2.0, 49mm Pentax circular polarizer.
