I was wondering who would buy those!

Have posted the reply on this thread... Another art & craft fair this coming Saturday. Be sure to come along to it too.

(I'm busy putting together photos for sale at it)

Good to hear it. I bought a nice black and white closeup photo of some stones on Portobello beach, from a stall holder on Sat, and thought to myself 'Wangi should be here'.

Yes, same thoughts myself Marya, last craft fair I bought a nice B&W of looking out to the sea from Dalriada gates. Good to see Wangi is now selling his pics other than from his doorstep!

Ooo...I nearly bought that one too. Don't know whether it was the skill of the photographer or the fact that it was the view from 'The Dalriada' that gave me such a warm feeling

Was the view "well kent?"

There certainly were a lot of folk showing plenty of interest, as I purchased my choice of photo.

Well I certainly know what I didn't do, but should have; and what I did do and shouldn't have bothered

Was a wee bit hectic prep wise - a print run didn't arrive during the week, so I had to run around like a blue arsed fly on Friday getting prints done in Edinburgh and then mounting them. Plus family visiting over the weekend. Plus an early flight to the States Sunday morning...
