    Wow Claire, that is exactly what I was hoping for! Amazing that you built up a relation of trust so quickly. Note: I would have promoted this photo, but unfortunately the carrousel on the homepage can only deal with landscape format photos :( Let it be known though that this one is deeply appreciated!
