I got the point about Bittern and Sir Vincent Raven. I bet Kris is chuffed about all the puns when all he wanted was for us to make serious comments about his brilliant photography.

Sorry David, you're quite right. I mean dragging a Horseman, cloth and tripod across Hertfordshire, setting everything up so carefully and waiting for the crucuial moment to squeeeze the bulb... deserves our most considered appraisal.

I'll have a think about it.

Andrew

P.S. I admit I'd never hear of Sir Vincent Raven...
Best wishes,

I'm sure Womble realises we are struck dumb at his ability to catch that pic JUST at the right moment - and all we can do whilst gasping is just to make these horrible puns .

As for Oggy's pic - I presume he's waiting for the next train .
