True Mark.
In that respect funerals and weddings have a lot in common. I don't
get invited to weddings these days (I can't chat up the bridesmaids
anyway ;-)), but I do go to colleagues' funerals or wakes every so
often...

I can't understand photographing the dead body itself,

together to see each other and I can understand why
some people might want photgraphs of their rarely seen
relatives. I've been to a lot of family funerals (My
gandfather had 3 of em: 1 where he died, one where he
lived all his life and one where he was buried) In
each one my mom was taking pictures (this was before I
was interested in photography very much) to chronicle
the event, but we don't have one pic of my grandpa in
the coffin and my aunts and uncles and cousins
welcomed those pictures.
