Back & Married

Hi All,
Probably none of you have noticed, but I have been away from the forum for about 6 weeks. Had a nice long holiday and even found a day to get married. Yes after 8 years of de-facto blish we decided we'd better formalise it.... Couple of pics below.
Many thousands of posts of passed since mt last visit, so I'm not going to bother reading them all, but hopefuly I'll be back into it with new posts. It seems this place in humming!
Hope you guys all enjoy Lostock and are surviving the heat. Looks like we have a nice tropical storm heading our way! Hopefully it will be gone by next weekend for NZ stardate.
Cheers for now...

Welcome back Robby, I've missed you! Congrats on getting married and the pics look awesome.

Where did you go for honeymoon?

You're just in time to come over for Lostock! Are you heading to SPSP this year?

Thanks gents.
Mike, we had a short honeymoon in Waitomo & Rotorua on our way back home. Planning a trip to Europe in June, so that will be the big one! Not sure about SPSP. I'd be keen, but the finances might not be! We have the 2006 Astrophotography camp the weekend before also.
Hiya Paul, Sneakin' is what I do best! PS 300D is all mod'ed and works great. Have you done yours yet?
Cheers

Send it over when your ready..... It's not a difficult job, you could probably tackle it yourself. Have you asked David (westsky) if he could do it for you?
One caveat though... The custom-WB when trying to do normal stuff is ok, but it'll never quite be as good again! I have attached a comparison. Note the grass & trees should be green in the custom-WB shot (It's not the Aussie outback!).
Cheers

Congratulations Robby. You look a truly content man (and I might say that your bride has a rather contented look on her face, too!)

Hope you can make it back to Oz some time soon.

Congrats Robby.As a photographer myself, Im always amused where the bridal couple want to have their wedding pics taken. Sitting in haystacks, hanging around in trees, in fields of corn/canola, on dry dusty roads, on carnival rides, with fishing rods etc.Congratulations to you both.
