Hope you like the pic's. My fav's are the ninja and B;ackwater ones.

Have just watched The Prestige, with Hugh Jackman and Christiuan Bale. Utterly brilliant, with twists within twists. I thouroughly recomend it to all of you. It was the first film in a very long time that had me on the edge of my seat.
