  21. She's absolutely beautiful, Bob, and you've captured her with a wonderful light. Sorry that I've been out of touch for a while - been very busy with photography, and probably fired off a couple of thousand frames in the past three days - I'm just hoping that they're not all rubbish! I'm hoping that you are OK in this horrible weather, and keeping warm. With my best wishes - - - Richard
