Absolutely Mgaft1.
I am of British descent so I speak what we think is the King's English........not that it is superior in any way, just more formal/proper. I'm intrigued by the grammar that people in the US use. The word 'gotten' is not a word in my opinion but it is also being used more and more by kids and even in the written word.
Everything must change and even I enjoy some slang expressions. Good for fun but not for serious writing.
All the best with your writing and photographs.
