 The Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Reverend and Right Honourable Dr Rowan Williams (to give his full title) gave a talk on 'how to misunderstand religion'. Its something I am very interested in, and relished the chance to hear his side (I am more in the Richard Dawkins camp). He is a very good speaker, but I didnt really agree with a lot of what he had to say. Instead of attacking Dawkins' ideas... he attacked the man, and failed to address any of the key points raised in the God Delusion.

Still, least I had a bit of paparazzi practise!

and when it comes to misunderstanding religion . .

really nice shot. I would (perhaps) have cropped it a little tighter on the right - but nice shot.

I quite like this - he has such a wonderful look on his face.

Wow, it took a couple of looks to catch the deep maroon curtain in the background. The lighting on his coat is great for just giving you enough 'subject' to photograph.
