The guy in Photo No. 5 with the large set of gnashers looks as though he might be a bit annoyed with you
Perhaps he is a Nikon user
Still its better that the NSW mascot which is a cockroach

Whilst at a drinks reception on HMS Warrior, I managed to 'escape' to take some photographs (some of these images are posted under 'Your Photos').
I had taken a series of shots with the DA* 16-50 on the main deck with the lens hood attached.
Conscious that I was supposed to be talking to the hosts and other guests, I quickly went below decks to see if there were any good shots to be had.
I took a few at very slow shutter speed and then resorted to using the camera's built-in flash (having no flashgun with me).
All images seemed fine on the LCD but once uploaded to the computer, I realised that most of the below decks shots had a strange area of dark shadow, centrally at the bottom of each image.
In my haste to take some more photographs and return to the drinks reception, I had left the lens hood in place and thus each photograph taken with the flash has a neat petal shaped area of shadow
I will not make that mistake again (hopefully).
I make a note that if i ever take the 16-50 out then the flash goes into the bag with it.

Thanks.
Was using the Tamron 90mm F2/8 Macro.
Are you sure you didn't lose 5mm off that lens somewhere
