And to sort of add to it - the train crash in NYC - well I've also travelled on that line going into Grand Central

Thankfully I'm well away from it all and equally thankfully I didn't have to use that route to go into the City.

I'll bet the Fof B has been apologetic - such incredible discourtesy !

From personal experience 'doing' even a small wedding isn't easy . I was lucky - on the day I was introduced to the Pro - and he couldn't have been nicer with me - was actually highly amused at some of my pics showing him shooting the bride - I gather that's not happened to him before We swapped the complete shots we took [ I got some from him that were not seen by others ] and he has used some of mine taken [ at the dance after the meal ] when he had gone home . I enjoyed it -- well I would the Bride was my younger daughter - but do it for real as a paid job - NOT ON YOUR LIFE.

Strikes me, Ken , you are well out of that one - you found the Bridezilla and the Banqueting Manager who knows it all .

Hmmm - I'm a bit caught up in this

WOW - that was a really good job you had the K01 with you .

Hope the dog is OK

WOW !

to my eyes - those are great shots . I love the contrast between the swan and the water.

I think I prefer the first one - possibly because of the the curve on the neck - it doesn't look as stiff

WOW - that does not sound to have been a pleasant experience in more than one way.

Glad to hear you are 'back of sorts'

Get well soon and enjoy the fun of researching your replacement kit

I prefer the second shot - the red of the leaf is so rich , as it is on top of the deeper colours of the ground and nuts.

The first one is much more interesting

I really like it

Same here
