    Yes, and 'bloomer' hardly seems thematically consistent.

    bloom·er 
    n.
    1. A costume formerly worn by women and girls that was composed of loose trousers gathered about the ankles and worn under a short skirt.

    Love your work Sof'. ;-)

    You mean with the other photographer? I remember deliberately not waiting for him to leave the frame!

    That’s good, isn’t it? Kodak comes up with a new film that works brilliantly in bad light – and Muggeridge declares it’s divine light.

    Apparently some parts of the Bible are plagiarised.

    Nah, just a P rating. (Or maybe a C rating?)

    Like I said, carry on, and I'll go read the censorship thread.

    Waterfront Museum Sing, from above.

    Guess so, but for one night, all food, drink and access to the pool included, plus breakfast, didn't seem too extravagant at the time. Compared to say this. In fact, not even close.

    Hey, Jonathon! Thanks for this. I'm enjoying everyone's night shots a great deal, and I've been practising, but until I get an SLR, I think my photographic version of night time shall remain a bit shit and haphazard. I'll keep trying but.

    These are awesome Sofie. Wish I had more to respond, but they need scanning attention. Being lazy, I guess.

    Oh al'right just cos you asked.
    The Cathedral was in the middle of restoration but it is so vast, much was still available to visit. We were also in the walled city to celebrate orientation week, great fun, people and music.
