Thamks Ted; f2 indeed.  I kept wishing the accordian player would turn to
me, but I think he was camera shy.  The fiddler was anything but shy.  When
I arrived, he turned to me, until he saw I was finished.

Good thing about being on home turf, I just got up on stage with the band
and started shooting.  These were the best.

Thanks,
Sonny
