I've always enjoyed taking pictures, from 35mm cameras to Digital, I take pictures of everything that interests me.
Am experimenting now with portraits and Macro.

...I have generally used the compact models as point and shoot is easy and quick although in the 90's I did own and use a canon SLR - to be honest though, I didn't really take it up properly at the time. Now using a Canon 550D.

I like to capture that moment in time we can look back on and smile, with great kids and beautiful grand-kids, plus living in Beautiful Scotland........there's lots of those moments!.

Am always open to new ideas regarding taking pics, for me a good picture doesnt have to be technically perfect, just has to convey something, whether it's an emotion, a message or a memory. I do strive for the best I can get.

I generally only use colour correction in post editing or some cropping, much prefer the picture to tell the story than "shopping" it.

Photography, Computers, Nature, being a Grandad.
