Welcome to the forum. You live in one of the finest places for photography so I think your new burst of enthusiasm should get off to a fine start.
Best regards, John

Like any forum, it takes a while to discover which discussions would be the most useful for me. I've got some good kit which I'm still learning (or relearning) how to use. I'm avoidiing the temptation to invest in new lenses - will find a way of using old lenses on a new body which, I suspect, will pay dividends in the long run by having to be a wee bit more prepared before I trip the shutter.
I don't know why some pictures (quite a few, really) don't end up looking the way I want them to in terms of contrast or colour. Framing is not that difficult for me - I remember some of that from the old days. I miss not having a darkroom (and have no space in the rectory for one).

Hi Robert
Welcome to the Forum, you are only a 30 minute drive from me, i live in a little town called Shotts just along the M8 from you.
On the query of your pictures not looking like you want them to thats just mostly down to PP, it can be like learning to read again in all honesty.
If theres any pictures you are needing a little advice on PP wise then i will be happy to try and help.
