I hate funerals , been to too many recently and another is imminent

I hate wedding photography but would possibly find shooting a funeral easier and enjoy a wedding far more

Might that make it as irony :
But if you are invited to the bun fight or wedding reception the money you save on food can go into the Lens & Camera Upgrade Fund It's an Ill Wind etc.

Thanks Stuey. I'm still part of the Protect study (prostate cancer) and have a yearly blood test and fill in a "life style" report.

Over the years in order of appearance:
Gout
Kidney out
Gall bladder out
Prostate out
Left hemi colonectomy (30 cm of bowel out)
Atrial Fibrillation (heart firing on 3 cylinders)
Slowly developing a cataract on my good eye
Just recovering from Man Flu and have thrown Organ Donor card in the bin.
Still mustn't grumble eh

Have had an interesting couple of weeks. Best news was finally being discharged as a bowel cancer patient, although I will have a colonoscopy next year sometime. The camera club monthly outings have started up again so something to look forward too there and blood pressure etc was ok today at the diabetic check-up, due another doppler test so awaiting the appointment. Man Flu is just about out of my system. Other than that nothing of real note

Wow, some of those shots made me dizzy just viewing them. Thanks for sharing.

In the early sixties a friend's husband died. She had photo taken of him in his coffin and sent it to his relations in Canada who were grateful for being informed and they sent a donation of $50 towards expenses.

Decided to buy it. It's the auto focus model and seems to function ok. It's got a 3 month warranty so just need some fine weather

@Geordie, the shop is Bob Wilson, Ashington. Doesn't have a lot of Pentax stuff but then who has
