Thought it about time I uploaded an image, it has been a busy few months with year end finances at work and at home, coupled with broadband speeds of 1.5 which has made any work painful....... but the good news is.... we are supposed to be having a cable upgrade in the next few weeks - hoooo rahhh..... the joys of living on the Welsh borders eh...? It can have a down side .....Tongue

A big thank you to David (DeSilver) Dave (Dave U) Rog (Rog Brown) for another great day out at Tutbury over the weekend. It was a busy day there so photographs were hard to get without capturing the crowds of people in the shot. But someone made good use of the crowds - to get a very nice Candid shot.... I think it was her winning smile which attracted the attention.Wink

I loved this child who had lovely rose coloured cheeks, as she played on the little hand made musical instrument her eyes watched me, which was a bonus. They were a great bunch of people with so much of interest to share with anyone with a willing ear.

The child is definitely the star here, good eye contact and "dad" makes a fine background.
Good to see you here again, Linda.

Yes it was a wonderful day out with some very nice company. You have caught this little girl wonderfully Linda. She had a lovely face and was unfazed by the crowds of people and carried on playing and eating as if she was in her own garden.
Thank you for you company threw out the day and the travelling to and from Tutbury Linda. Smile

...and what a great image to re-appear with, Linda. So good to see you uploading again and impressive work on the bg.
That child is so photogenic, and the slightly de-saturated look works extremely well with the Middle Ages subject matter.
Look forward to seeing more form you in futureSmile
