That question seems to have stumped everyone Brenda!  Looks like most people were influenced mainly by a family member!

What natural disaster would you be the most afraid of?

That's a deep one Mick. In my case I think 1/99 fits the bill!!! Depends if you are out in the field or in the confines of a studio. In the field I would probably go 50/50 even 40/60 as you have to have luck on your side with subject, weather etc but you still need the skills to know what to do with the old box brownie. Under controlled studio conditions I would go for 80/20 even 90/10 as you have no excuse as you have total control unless of course you shooting aimals or even worse kids!!! 

 Black and White or Colour?

Years ago I would develop black & white films and print the photos in a tiny home darkroom, dark and stinky chemicals !

We see things in colour and now I have no interest in black & white,  so the answer is colour.

Do you :  print photos at home

               print in shop yourself

               send away for prints

               don't print

I used to send away for prints, and now when I print, I get them done at our local drug store (chemist).  But I store hundreds more on the computer than I ever get printed.  BTW, they say that you should print all your most precious photos as nothing electronic is as permanent.

Have you ever had an electric shock?  (Accidentally, I mean, lol.  Not the psychotherapy treatment, lol).

I think you are do for another picnic Mick!

I am not particularly a fan of curry. I can't eat spicy foods without having some trouble. Wish I could.

What is your favorite hot dish?

I enjoy a chilli occasionally, but that is normally when I visit my family.

What is your favourite sport to watch, or maybe participate in?
