    Advice on Church shots needed & Hello from Milton Keynes!!

    Wow I love those pictures, thank you for sharing them and for the advice. I have emailed the church to see if they'll allow me to go and practise. It's not local and i'm not sure if churches are open to the public anymore?!? The one over the road certainly isn't apart from when events are...
