I have a very similar shot, Avril! What a terribly boring job, but they stand as still as statues. Does this one have sunnies on? (Yep, glad to be home, but had an absolute ball!) It's the post processing that helps make a picture, so a little pocket instant would be wonderful to make do with! (I still can't do that, think I'll miss something, so lug all my camera gear around!) #1464351

I'd love to be able to just carry around a small pocket camera too but like Debbie, I'd be afraid I'd need one of my lenses so I lug everything with me all the time. Anyway, this is a terrific shot taken with your little camera, Avril!! #10145604
