    I know - but it was right in front of me on the patio where I was working and I couldnt stand and watch - how much pain the moth must have been in -

            Thanks silu, coming from you that's a great and much appreciated compliment! Oh, those were the days....actually I never did have a Box Brownie, although I think my parents did:heehee: I started off with a light leaking Halina 35x which taught me a lot and gave me the photo bug.!

                        I'm no M/F expert Woo, usually it's the male who's more flamboyant I think. @strongylodon will know I reckon,
