...and the wedding!
#1

Well, not yet, but to celebrate my momentary return, I must share some news with you:
I'll be getting married on June 21st next year(yippee!!)...I proposed to Karen(the lady in question) last week on the brow of a local hill. Mercifully, she said yes!
Here's the ring we slipped on her finger(all the way from Australia funnily enough, as I wanted to design it myself)!

Awww thank you all very much!
It was all a bit of a Godincidence all the way through really: if I'd not got ill last year, I'd never have visited this church in Malmesbury. Am now playing bass in the worship band; also, Karen and I never felt any attraction until God just got us together..we've since found that our respective churches had been praying for years that the "right person" with all the attributes we needed would come along one day.
Here's one taken with the Canon 50mm f1.8 on Sunday; I set the aperture at f.16 or so , that I could set the timer and run into the vague framing area without too many depth of fied problems. I blurred the background in the processing stage, overexposing the raw pic to retain a high-key feel. As it was a very contrasty day, I had to do 2 processes and combine them in Photomatix; I confess to a bit of dodging and use of the age-reducing diffuse glow!!

Good luck to you both. I won't wish you as many years as me and my wife have had. You would finish up like Methuselah's. You did say you were starting late. Rolleyes
But a long and prosperous and healthy relationship.Smile

Bless yous!Smile
Lovely thought Jules; I'll actually be repatriating to Malmesbury, some 18 miles away(but with a 10th century abbey and the River Avon)...
Musically, I hope she'll become "composed" about it....and photographically, well,..."developing"....!
