I obviously can't go selling AFP-shot pictures but the stuff I shoot in my own time is fine. Let me know what you're after! Surely your walls should be covered by your own masterpieces already though? No probs, Akin. I obviously can’t go selling AFP-shot pictures but the stuff I shoot in my own time is fine.

Where my hand was touching it lit up in a rather funky electric blue before it blew me backwards but I escaped with nothing more than a bit of muscle strain from where my arm was thrown off the oven. Wouldn't recommend it as a hobby. The lightning struck the chimney and I was holding the metal bar on the Rayburn at the time.
