D., The truth is, I do like shooting wedding assignments, but as a documentary type shoot. Because people have their mind on everything else than what the photographer is doing, particularly one who queitly plinks away without flash. Then no one thinks you're serious and just an amateur taking snaps as a wedding guest. To do it in this manner and get paid "WELL" for it, is even a better deal. ;-) ted - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
