Yes, it does look like you had a good time.

I have a two questions from the photos.

The first relates to photography and in particular Bob's wrist strap. Could you let me know what system it is and any draw back with it.

I am sick of the neck strap as it tends to get in my way a lot. I tend to use the technique used by Maffe and Martin of wrapping the strap around my wrist, but I am not happy with it.

The second qustion is the age old question to Maffe, are they long shorts or short longs you are wearing.

@Swede66: Great fun meeting you again, some nice shots as well

@mpb: Had to sell off 10-30% of all I had to afford filling the Wales/english/danish delegation with "in body stabilizers"
So my pant´s got cut off, I shot with 24-50 instead of 24-70

From todays trip to Forsmarks Bruk

That particular strap is a bit of a hybrid - The wrist bit is from a Konica FS-1, with an Op-tech connector attached, but you can fashion the ordinary Op=tech strap to give a loop you cab put your wrist through and then tighten with the little ferrule for keeping the strap-end tidy.

I like it a lot - lets he hold the camera in my right hand and gives security that it wont drop to the floor if I let go - plus the strap is still there so I can sling it over my right shoulder.

Thank You, Maffe. It was hard work to "clean up" the sky ;-)

Here is another shot - a stitch of two (vertical "pano").

Well, I am on my way home from Bob's place and looking forward to some sleep after a very hectic, tiring but wonderful week in Stockholm. My thanks to everyone for making the meeting such a success. In particular, my thanks to Manfred for hosting us. I have a very hectic week ahead of me before I fly away yet again on another expedition albeit, under the direction of my wife! I will try to post some of my shots this week. Thanks again to everyone. Martin
