A raffish rogue -- well definitely raffish, not really a rogue! :)

A raffish rogue -- well definitely raffish, not really a rogue! :)

There was a big custom thing happening in my wife's village which I had planned to cover extensively. In the event, nothing went right for me photographically, a lot of stuff happening when I wasn't there (which makes it very difficult to take pictures, I have found).

So on the big day when I thought most of the stuff was going to happen (I was so serious I put the 12-35 on the GX7 instead of the usual "around the village" 12-32), but it did not, I just grabbed a few pix about the place.

Here's Jerry, a really likeable bloke, very funny, always in the thick of work to be done (and there is always plenty of it), and always chewing betel nut, as the state of his teeth attests. He'll probably be pretty much toothless by the time he is 50, but he will have enjoyed getting there! (Unless he goes down to mouth cancer in the interim!) Toothless, he'll grind up the betel nut mix with a rough pestle and mortar.

Pre 12-35, I definitely would have hauled out the Oly f1.8 45mm for this picture. This was cropped just a bit top and bottom to square it up and remove unnecessary stuff.
