Shooting politicians? Hmm, very tempting :twisted:

Unfortunately I'm going fishing at Seal Rocks that weekend...

Birddog, thanks for planning this, had a great time and (fingers crossed) some awesome shots from my new 50mm f1.4 baby.

The vegan food was fantastic!

Thanks for a great Day Birdy. It was great to catch up with Trieu and Purdey, too. Shame we had a number of cancellations on the day. BTW, here's a shot of Trieu proudly displaying the Canon flag :wink:

Vesak Day

Thanh,

Thank you for organising this visit to the Phuoc Hue Temple. I had a really great day and now will have to sit down and process all the shots I took.

Good to meet Triew and always good to catch up with Peter and especially good to catch up with you.

An extra big thank you has to go to all the people at the temple who just accept us with smiles and friendship.

Cheers,
Terry
