Are you able to purchase the picture in a variety of frames,sizes and finishes?
If it's anything like my other half's graduation photos the other week, the speeding fine would be cheaper!
ninebob, you probably aren't the only one who's been "caught" by this malfunctioning camera, so even if they do send you a ticket there will be enough people contesting their tickets for the same reason. Can't hurt to contact your local cop-shop, they'll probably know it's on the blink already.
