Don't know what a Glamcab is but you're pretty darn good with the portraits.

Paul .. "Glamcabs" is a very British reference - it made me chuckle though

I'm like Frog don't know what Glamcabs is but they are so retro. They are all great but that last girl with the freckles was look SO appropriate for what I think the event was, I loved that one.

To put our American cousins out of their misery ... Glamcabs was a fictitious taxi company in a film called Carry on Cabby. The Carry on films were a long-running (and much loved) comedy series of films - they made over 30 of them and the early (best) ones tapped into social changes of the day - in Carry on Cabby's case, it was about women's rights/feminism in the early 60s. Any Brit would know about the Carry On films. You can see a poster and some info for the film at: http://www.carryonline.com/carryonli...ryoncabby.html

You can see from the poster that the uniforms worn in Paul's pictures are authentic!

Cheers

Next year, I'll take a reflector, and maybe also remember to get the 580EX II serviced.
Plus some colour gels for balancing against the low sunlight.
