I have shot a few parties during chrsistmas with the Fuji 1600 "I forgot the marketing Name" version..;-) Very dark situations that. in the end, forced me to ask for B&W print instead. Tonight I will upload a few for your consideration. peace David On Tuesday, January 03, 2006, at 07:22AM, <SonC@aol.com> wrote: >As promised, I have had time to rescan this picture, and I think it does >the >moment more justice now.
