It's always a saddening moment when a nice chap leaves for his final journey. Hopefully, he'll find a better world to spend eternity.

I heard from Emma yesterday about this 
Tony is at peace and free from all suffering - and for that we should rejoice .
He is sorely missed
let the education continue
proud owner of a couple of cameras and a few bits and bobs

I'll have to leave the glass till tonight.
Tony will certainly be missed.
I suspect Oggy's camera settings may be a bit out, surely he'll now have perfect light - which is normally reckoned to be nearer dawn/dusk.
