It's always difficult in museums to cut out people and distracting items when trying to shoot the exhibits, but one answer is to go in close and concentrate on bits of the various items on display. These shots, using the Pentax K-5 and the 18-135mm Pentax WR zoom lens, were taken at the Caister Castle Car museum. These were the bits that caught my eye.
