Hi All!
As it seems to be the "done thing" to introduce yourself here, I've dive in and do just that.
I'm a 61 year old retired broadcast engineer. I was born and went to school in Western Canada, moved to the UK in my mid-20s for "a year or two's adventure" and ended up staying for 31 years, and am now enjoying the warmth of sub-tropical Queensland in Australia.
I've been dabbling in photography since I was about 10, had a darkroom going by age 12 and have been snapping away ever since. Although I still have one of my two FM bodies, I made the move to digital about 14 years ago and DSLR (a D40X) about six years ago.
If I'm being honest, I've joined so I can have a photography related outlet while my health prevents me from doing much serious photography...I'm due for some heart valve surgery in a few weeks. Once that's over, just try to hold me and my camera bag down though!
Nice to meet you all!
A couple of photos so you can see what I do (and tear it apart).
