Glenn, What a remarkable find!! My research project had hit a dead end until I saw this post only minutes ago. Now the big questions. Are you going to do a CD and if so...when will it be ready? This is fantastic news and I look forward to your reply. Cheers Scott

It is a lovely photo..nice find.

Johnsy, They are nice images even under the circumstances (may he RIP). Taken by you? Are you a member of the west or just another enthusiast like all of us on the forum? Cheers Scott
