My Life in Pictures

Some of these photographs I took myself, some other people took with my camera, some I found of the Web. They're mostly of morris dancing, because morris dancing is very photogenic. Each page has one or two images on it. The earlier images are around 70K, and some of them need cropping. Be patient! Later images are around 35K and better quality.
