Usually I warm up as I travel: I'm off to Vietnam in a few days, so I'll start trying to warm up now, but I suspect it will take me a week there before I'm in the "swing". Looking forward to seeing more, and if I find mine shots, I'll give you a "shoot-out" and we can both look at wonderful images (without people ;-) ) On 10/03/2005, at 1:32 AM, Bunting, Roger L (Roger) wrote: > Alastair Firkin wrote Tue Mar 8 21:41:06 PST 2005 > >> I really enjoyed our time in Budapest, except for an unhappy massage >> experience, and so I've enjoyed your images, but one comment I would >> make is "has everyone left".
