Great picture!

There you go; everyone to their own. That's the joy of Highland Dress

But then we wouldn't have had the joy of discussing the positioning of flashes... I might also add. I sometimes do quarter past nine. I'd hate anyone to think I was consistant. (hehehe...)

Have you tried a quarter to three, John? Now there's a position!
