I'm guessing people may HATE this, Stu, which is partly why I think it kicks chunky bums. I like having my line of vision taken to the background. This is part of that antidiestablishmentarianism photography (aka anti-focus polarisation) that works wonderfully well with anyone who has both sides of the brain functioning without 'distractionitis'.

Sod you backwards and then upside down for being so damn clever! Two thumbs skyward, S-sensei.

I meant antidisestablishmentarianism. It was purely a tie-po. ;)

@amy: Thanks Amy! I mean to maintain the aura of mystery, intrigue, fascination and general hero-worship that has sprung up around me. This is to be achieved, mainly, by ensuring that my hideous form isn't broadcast across the ether, the effect of which would undoubtedly shatter your monitor, and leave you unable to post more great pics or nice comments!
