to all those in colder climates........ happy Xmas from Australia - in Wollongong just south of Sydney. It's hot and sunny and soon to go and swim. I have little to contribute to the list so far - but as a teacher of photog the endless ideas you all give me (practical, technical, left-field and oddball) have been much appreciated. I hope I can return the favour in the future. thanks to all, and the all best for the new year. Michael
