ihave been retired for a number of years, after being a plumber/pipefitter/ foreman /supervisor/ self employed, Was a keen Angler, in general Course & Fly, both of which i enjoyed, but i have been doing photography for a lot of years on and off, quite a bit of super 8 in the 70's & 80's then in the later years picked up on the digital Photography,since the late 90's early 2000's and on upto date, mostly with compacts then bridge cameras, then ventured onto the real m'coy DSLR, but the whole adventure has and still is a learning curve, of which i thoroughly enjoy and hope many others do the same
