Wow two hours, she has to remember you, lol, and yes it is very nice of them.
They are such a nice people.

Oh I remember, yes myonlyphoto does reveals some pictures, lol, but lens is usually give away.

Thanks James again, and thanks for the tips. I know someone who likes to use flash in the outdoors to get the crisp images.
However, I tried it myself and I found that you can see the flash a bit, looks little unnatural. I will try your ISO400 tip then.

Great write-up. You set the photos along with your narrative so well. The skunk mailbox story is really interesting and unique. Dierdre Tomlinson has also remembered me from previous visits. I think last summer I spent two hours one day taking shots around their garden. It’s incredibly generous of them to open the garden up to the public.

You used to have a photo of yourself on one of your blogs. I think it was myonlyphoto and it may have been some time ago. I don’t think I would have recognized you otherwise. Except for maybe the 100-400L – haha! Nice to meet and chat with you on Saturday and thank you for the kind words and pointer to my flickr site.
