Rob Once again, many thanks for your efforts. Whilst writing i thought i would just mention that it was always inevitable that sometimes we would get "doubles" of photos already posted but these are easy to identify becsuse of a master index and your work is none the less appreciated. Best regards Ron

I did a search before I posted Ron, but they did not come up. I don't like this new site's search engine at all. The light that afternoon was great for doing these pics. 5 May 2013. I was there to photographs graves of two men of my Dad's Regt/Battery, so doing these was no bother at all.
Rob Apologies........... I should have made it clear that I was not referring to your last posting but rather to entries from other would-be posters. Whilst writing, as you pointed out the lighting was spot on. I am lucky enough to have a splendid contact at Durnbach CWGC Cemetery and he has always pointed out that there are certain times of the day that are best for taking photos of grave-stones, your own examples make this very clear. Best regards & keep up your good work ! Ron
