“I can’t believe this photo has not been taken by a professional photographer who calmly composed the picture”
One of the earliest recorded Auto-Timer Photos in the Digger family archives. The skills were passed down from father to son!
NOTE. All photos shown here have been taken using the Auto-Timer facility (in the “old days” that was the funny little lever thing on cameras), but now its a setting where you can even choose the length of the delay- now that’s progress!
