Re: English Open 2007 Photographs
Hi Bob,
Glad to hear you liked the pics. I intend to add many more over the next few weeks showing tournaments going back quite some years.

Re: English Open 2007 Photographs
Thanks Lindus,
I really do enjoy looking at pictures. Is it possible to add the names? I only know the name of a few.
I didn't see any pictures of you, you need to learn to do the self-portrait, it seems incomplete if we don't see a picture of everyone who attended the tournament. I feel a little bit like I've been cheated. (just kidding)
Thanks again Lindus. I will be looking forward to seeing more pictures.

Hi Liam, I presume that Lindus took all the pictures himself ;-(
So you might try turning your screen around and close your eyes.
That smiling gentleman with a camera that you now see, that's Lindus ;-(

P.S:
How about looking at the pictures and telling what we see.
Wait for my next mail ;-(

Re: English Open 2007 Photographs
Thank you Ingo for your ever helpful observations.
I have just checked some camera users manuals to see if mine is the only one with a "self timer" facility.

Re: English Open 2007 Photographs
Hi Pal, Liam and Ingo,
Photobucket is perhaps the best of its kind as Geocities only allows a small amount of space. Unfortunately Photobucket does not provide a feature for adding names and so I will have to do so at this forum. My first care was to upload the photographs however.
The thought of turning my digital camera around and taking a photograph of myself did occur to me but I instantly dismissed the idea as I did not want to break such an expensive piece of equipment with my hideous face
Seriously though guys, I will post the players' names as soon as I can here.

1 - Mrs and Mrs Fred Buckby. 2- Frank Bednall of Manchester.
3- Len Chandler.
4- Patricia Breen playing Len Chandler
5- Charlie McKenna hovering over Frank Bednall.
6- Frank Bednall (left) .

Re: English Open 2007 Photographs
Yes Dave, number 36 is Brian Lucas. Not a good photograph as the background light did not help.
One must remember that it is not easy for me to take photographs as I use a crutch to gain locomotion and being therefore a bit like Long John Silver I only have the one hand available to hold the camera
