Hi Ocho-Onda,
Lovely pics as usual - thanks! Wonder if you read an article in THE GUARDIAN called "Keep on eyes on the balls and not the belles" which was about the warped state of photography during the Wimbledon?
Take care...I am trying to cope with cold turkey reaction with the death of my laptop...*sighs*
Have a nice day.
It could also be " Keep eyes on the balls and not on the beaus " ha, ha.
You will feel better - just go out and buy a better laptop, to console yourself, lol.
Cheers
