I didn’t take this shot – that’s me hanging upside down – way back in 1975
The original shot was given high key treatment then finished in porcelain.

Hi, my name’s Chris. I live in the beautiful county of Monmouthshire.
When I was 10 I was given a Brownie 110 for a school trip – not a single shot came out! But ….. the photography bug was born.
My interests are broad in both subject & style leading to a diverse portfolio – check out My Directory at http://www.missmoneypenny.talktalk.net/ to see just how varied my style & products are.
I hope you enjoy your visit, my sites have been created with you in mind.

I love the texture and the age of this shot….pretty cool:)
It’s a pretty old shot to start with – such a long time ago

And don’t tell me? You’ve not stopped talking since:-) LOL Excellent Chris. Is that a tank-top you were wearing?
Lol – my husband would agree with you there. No, it’s not a tank top but I agree it does look like one. It was a short sleeved cardigan.

Lol. I wondered after if I’d done the right thing – after all, who knows who had kissed it before me? It was probably covered in all kinds of germs. I survived though with no ill effects. I don’t think it’s allowed now – a health and safety issue.

Cool… I wish I still had the photos from when I was there, sadly the film was re-used (not by me) and I lost all the shots… maybe I should return some day, I loved the grounds of the castle :-)
Nice shot by the way :-)
BTW they let us kiss it in 98 I think it was… I think they must have disinfected it or something between people.. you know what it’s silly if they say that, as no-one fell through the gap or (as far as I know) contracted anything nasty from it :-P
Now that’s interesting – I thought it had been stopped completely. It’s such a shame that you lost your photos – I’d be devastated. But – maybe it’s a way of telling you to go back?

that is really a neat photo! did everyone have to kiss the stone upside down?
Yes – you had to lean a long way down, backwards, to kiss the stone – it was a bit scary
