Hi, my name is Graham but my friends call me Paddy (Patrick being my middle name). I have been 'into' photography for many years but have just started out in digital after a long, long break. I now live in Peterborough, Cambridgeshire.

I tried an experiment of a hand held, slow shutter speed to blur people walking through this ancient archway. Not much of a picture I know, but I was surprised when I saw it on screen how many feet remained static enough to record while.. http://www.freeimagebrowser.com/today/p-4297-ghosts-have-feet.html Mon, 13 Oct 2008 15:11:20 CDT http://www.freeimagebrowser.com/today/p-4297-ghosts-have-feet.html# I love gates that no longer serve any purpose. Either they lead to nowhere or have not been used for years.

For this very lucky shot, I turned my back to the stage and grabbed a few shots without lifting the camera to my eye of the audience, this was the only one worth using but I think it is a gem.
