To tyro: Permission

[Royaldevon]

Hello John,

Thank you for your critique.
In answer to your question, no, I didn't seek permission.
I was wearing my ornithological hat and pretending to photograph the ducks!

Have a great Sunday,
Bev

Hi Bev,

Thanks for your reply - sorry I didn't see it sooner.

That's pretty clever - stalking people while pretending to photograph the ducks and not them. A cunning ruse.

I should have thought that an "ornithological hat" was one which sported colourful feathers around the brim - but photographing birds while wearing one of those would be a bit like visiting a sick relative while wearing black and with a tape measure dangling around your neck!

Kind Regards,

John.
