For those who don't know, the mugshot is my own. ;)

Me too. 
But I am still convinced this is Mark doing some work on the side:

This is me playing bass clarinet in the Ochestra of the Southern Finger Lakes on March 4, 2007. Dvorak's The Noonday Witch and Mussorgsky/Ravel Pictures at an Exhibition were on the program.

Ascension Church in Kolomenskoye, somewhere outside Moscow. It's on UNESCO's World Heritage list, and apparently was built "to celebrate the birth of the prince who was to become Tsar Ivan IV ('the Terrible')." The big picture with snow is nice.

Coincidentally I was watching Eisenstein's Ivan last night and they used the church as exterior in some scenes. Here are screenshots, not the best quality:

That's interesting. I still haven't seen that film....By the way, how do you capture screenshots of a film?

Mark, you would seriously be my wife's hero  :)  She played bass clarinet in high school, and loved it!  She wishes she hadn't stop playing it.....but is thinking of taking it up again.  0:)

Both those wonderful works have some great material for the bass clarinet.  :)

I suppose it depends on how one is viewing it; on one of the program on my computer you simply press C whilst the film is paused. But the other more usual methods of screen-capturing work too.

Print-Screen doesn't work while the film is playing. I found a page which suggested disabling "use overlays" in Windows Media Player but that didn't work, neither did disabling video acceleration. I think I'm doing something incorrectly so will try again this evening.
