You may have mentioned it before Rich but what type of camera do you use, is it the film/transparency kind or is it digital?. I am not a camera buff know nothing about the technicalities of shutter speeds apertures etc that's why I use a digital, just bought myself an Olympus digital camera and while for an 85 year old I have a very very steady hand I do realise the need for tripod etc for perfection. By the way I made a nice fill from you poppy picture, Thank you.
