Macmillan RA 2014 hi res photos

Photos of nearly everyone's boat can be purchased. In and leaving conwy.

Alex Whittaker the freelance photographer has kindly put the photos he took with his £6k professional camera on a new website at a very cheap price per purchase. Clarity is incredible. You get the digital copies too so you can then do what you wish with them. If you would like one, go to his site here, to get a pro photographer to come out for the day with that equipment would likely be a grand or more. He has enabled us to get the cruise in to PBR magazine with shots of the boats with Macmillan flags etc and the Just Giving page in it too to raise potential funds and awareness of the charity. Thanks Alex

Alex Whittaker / Shedpix

Or here's a direct link that might work

I was under the impression you download the pics? Rather than receive anything.

Well in that case I'll admit to a dose of 'operator error', eat a slice of humble pie and ask if anyone can pm me his email address so I can ask him to send me the files?

They're decent pics but I don't particularly want to go through the whole online purchasing process again!

Following an email exchange with Mr Whittaker this morning, he's very swiftly emailed the images.

Many thanks Sir.

Now back to composing my recruitment advertisement for a technically accomplished Personal Assistant - you gainfully employed presently Kerny?
