Nats, you are correct, but perhaps not the response expected Seriously, Thos pictures are not good enough to make any comment. They need better focus and contrast. Even then, spotting anything but the obvious fakes freom photos is just about impossible in my opinion. Dave

I'll take some better photos tomorrow. Any suggestions on what I can improve on? It's really difficult to obtain the best lighting.

I'm convinced that JR's either a secret professional photographer or he's got quite a few tricks up his sleeve that he's just not sharing...

Thanks Seany, I know that's the best thing to do but I live in flats in a rough/tough area of London... not the easiest thing to do for me unfortunately.
