No, I'm sure that he dressed to blend with his camera's firmware and the 
lack of IR filters in my lens sizes. Luckily Marty had the
camera set for ISO 320 and some minus EV, because I didn't work out how to 
change the setting for ISO!

Cheers

Wasn't Marty wearing a black shirt?
:-P
Very good quality, indeed.
Thanks for showing,
