It's Max's fault...

...that I didn't get to go on a photo walk today. Max wanted to pick my brains on matters photographic and he wanted to do it this afternoon... so we did.

Well, would you have argued?

Usual viewing advice applies!

Its amazing how expressive a face can be when its not really doing anything. Must be the eyes ... and the mouth! Have fun!
