Well done Skip.  I saw the article, but I did not spot that.

By the way, the shots of Trinity College in Cambridge do not really
do not really show how beautiful the place is.  Many of the colleges
in Cambridge are really photogenic (King's College in particular).
My family and I went punting there a few weeks ago (against my
initial judgement ;-)) and it was a great way to enjoy an hour or so;
the river Cam runs behind and through some of the colleges.  Because
of the danger of a dunking, I took only my XA, but next time I will
take more of the kit and do it when the light is lower and warmer.

By the way, punting (pushing a flat boat along with a long pole) is
really good exercise - I was stiff for days afterwards ;-).

On p.33 of the August 18, 2001 issue of the U.K. magazine Amatuer
Photographer, there is an article profiling a British photographer
Nick Danziger who has just come out with a new book "The British".

On page 36, the article states that he "took all the shots on
Olympus equipment (an OM3, OM3Ti, and an OM4Ti) and most were taken
in low light using fast wideangle lenses."

So some working pros are still using the old OM equipment to good measure.

BTW, the pictures are VERY nice.
