They all need to have a big bolt of lightening flash to get an exposure, which in turn makes all their images look identicle. And only different because it's a different bride and groom each week. It's a wonder he didn't say , "yeah but the grain! My God it'll be terrible!" But we Leica users know how to use the light we see by and our pictures surely do look different than the "twinky light happy snaps!" :) ted Ted Grant This is Our Work.
