Renderosity has opened a whole new world to me, its a fantastic place and have had some brilliant support from many new friends.  I retired from work very early through ill health so I took to photography from the very basics.
 Since joining I have grown in confidence with my photography and I now think because of RR that I take it a little more seriously. I started off here using a Fuji Finepix 6500fd, it took some great pictures but I'm hooked now so I have now(April 2008) bought a DSLR SAMSUNG DX10 and having fun learning the settings etc. ( these things take me a while lol)Â
I am so fortunate to be with a wonderful person in my life, Sylvia. She is not just my partner but of course she's also my best friend. Previously I have been married but seperated a few years ago and have two fantastic children. I NOW have two fantastic grandchildren !!!
My interests are photography, i have had a dabble at Acrylic painting, and I enjoy long walks out in the countryside.      I also have an interest in anything historical.  I want to have a sample of just about everything there is in photography, who knows what the future holds!
Thanks for calling by.    Alan

Strange how we overlook somethings in life, untill we find an interest in it. Superb capture of an very ancient wonder!

I know what you mean, it seems since I decided to upload onto RR I am forever viewing things in a different way, and never without my camera. It is an amazing shot of a fabulous creature!! Good job for us you had your camera with you. hugs Jane xx

Wonderful macro of this grasshopper! Great play in the lines of the photo, too -- everything seems to be flowing bottom left to top right! Well done! :^)
