    Thank you Kandy,Robert,Rosa, Marley and Pal for your lovely comments,they really are appreciated.:)

    There were Hardly any Photographers there,As the new law says that you are not allowed to Photograph Policemen,I was approached on more than one occasion and I think it was purely that I use a long lens most of the time(400mm) 35cm in length,If I use the Standard lens I have never been approached:cnfs:
    But I thought In for a Penny in for a Pound and went for It,In this first Photograph as you can see one of the river Police pointing at me but with our British Bulldog Spirit Carried on Regardless:old::rotfl:
