Wiley Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 When you say loft setting, can you go into more details please as many professional photographers now use a Standard widowhood box situated in their customers lofts and was wondering if this is acceptable?

OLDYELLOW Posted December 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 Hows it going ???? well I have to sift through loads of emails to find emails I need . Then I have to further sift through the numerous photo's I've been sent because people can't follow simple instructions only one class is open and I'm receiving emails with multiple classes which balls up the process of downloading one class at a time and saving the photos as you can imagine !!! So if by any chance their is photo's missing that's because that class weren't open grrrrr !!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLDYELLOW Posted December 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Apologises I'm running a little late class 2 will be on as soon as I've sorted it out . The reason I'm late is my grandma died this morning aged 88 . So I've spent today and no doubt a lot of time to come sorting the house and and stuff and the funeral , so please bare with me the show will go on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
