Subject: [Leica] Photo - When a lesson in church goes a little long...

My wife and I flew back to D.C. for our oldest son's wedding - the
first of our children to make this choice. Good for him!

The wedding itself was during the Sunday service of the Fall Church
Presbyterian Chuch following a tradition that dates to the Scottish
heritage and early American days.

During the ceremony the minister routinely offers a lesson just for
the children who all come forward, sitting on the steps which lead to
the alter, and listen.

Sometimes his message, aimed at both young and old, goes on a tad too
long for some of them. Even though there was, right there, a REAL
bride and a REAL groom (as I heard two nine-year-olds discussing
before the service began).

This is on Kodak 400 BW CN, Leica M6ttl, Noctilux (I shot five rolls
through it before I ever got to see how any of them turned out - and
in the subdued light of the church I needed every stop I could
muster!)

Comments are most welcome, of course.
