Great shot, and Leigh's eyes are still clear. It must have been early in the night. :D
I hope a wonderful time was had by all.

Incredibly sharp, beautifully exposed portraits Chris. It was great to meet your son too! He was a brave man coming along to meet all of us weirdos (ok ok, I speak for myself here).

Wow Chris That shot of Geoff blows me away. Strong eye contact and beautifully lit given the conditions. My pick of the three here.

Fantastic portraits Chris. Leigh looks like he could do with a bit more sleep (I guess that's nothing new!) and why is it that Geoff has not aged a minute in the last four years??

Firsty, that hair is scary. At least there is some! And Leigh, still got that hat. It's a classic. Chris, you don't post tonnes of photos, but when you do, they are always top drawer.
