I did the DU job on Friday, which was very depressing - I think that whoever sanctioned Depleted Uranium use should be made to eat the stuff. I'll put one of the portraits on my PAW - I'm still scanning andPhotoshopping.I found a Metz32 in KP Prof. in Cambridge, so I didn't need to borrow your Vivitar - but thanks for the offer! One interesting note - the guy we photographed on Friday has had TV and news photogs photograph him - he wasn't impressed by my 'little' cameras!
