Hi Ted,

I, for one, would be keen to hear a little of how that shot came about.

Did you see it coming?  Did you ask Pierre to 'go the slip'?  SLR or
rangefinder?  Time to focus or just a snap with fingers crossed?

Really.

TIA.

Regards

Rick (shutter speed? aperture? brand of battery in the camera?) Dykstra
