It was your blog post here that prompted me to share my Tombstone Tuesday experience on Ancestral Wormhole.<br /><br />After reading this I looked at the gravestone photo's I took over 10 years ago and realised that I should do better! Santa hopefully will be bringing me a Canon 600D and a wireless flashgun. <br /><br />Researching on the internet makes you lazy, whatever you find on the web follow it up back to the primary source, you never know what nuggets of information you may find. Graveyards and Record Offices are such wonderful places!ancestralwormholehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03669093257942210516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691016683378293851.post-27447027531229370562011-11-28T01:47:12.987-05:002011-11-28T01:47:12.987-05:00Great article!

And a remote flash at that! Seeing Greg's posts on Google+ convinced how effective this could be. Sometime in the next few months I hope to get able to put together a remote setup like he has and see what I can do about getting better gravestone photos.Marianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04738104230962644360noreply@blogger.com
