Many thanks Frank, it's amazing how much work you can do in a limited amount of time when you don't have to worry about changing films or media expense (given this was a non-paying job). There have been very few comments but they've been viewed quite a bit, I don't know if it's a good sign or bad but I do appreciate feedback when it's offered. > Where were these taken? Is this part of an event of some sort (sorry, but I'm > horribly ignorant about Buddism, except that it was started by a fat guy with > big earlobes <g>)? Are you connected with it, or were you an observer only? These were taken in a home temple which is located in a small terrace home in the a semi-industrial inner suburb of Sydney called Zetland. As you can see the prayer room was just amazing, if I had been lead in blind folded I wouldn't have know where I was. I'm only connected via mutual acquaintances who asked me very nicely if I would document the visit (which I did with enthusiasm :-) > Anyways, great stuff; a wonderful document of the gathering. It was pretty cool to be there during the event, I was encouraged to make my way to the front of the prayer room but I was a little conscious of the camera noises however it didn't seem to bother anyone. A couple of the younger Monks took some low light hand held shots with my kit, boy do those guys shake, maybe I could teach them a thing or two :-) Cheers, Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
