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)ÂÂ
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

Superb presentation :)

Wonderful atmosphere! Are these people actors? A good mood of these war days and a good idea to take the photo in sepia colors

Great shot, takes me back to when people could look into a pram without being arrested on suspicion of some sort of evil intent. Absolutley perfect in sepia, Alan, brilliant.

Well would you believe it, as Victor would say, I have posted an image of Libbie(yes I spelled it wrong first time as well) before I looked at your upload. She was a real darling though Alan you have to admit. I was smitten by her anyhow, I could have taken her home with me, she really was a treasure. She kept blowing me kisses as well, every time I saw her I waved and she blew me kisses. Superb capture and postwork Alan. They might be visiting East Lancs Railway, when its on, they have joined the Northern Forties Group and they attend every year. Bravo!!!!!

Tell me, do those stockings really have seams or were they drawn on with eyebrow pencil as a lady often did back then? The outfits are wonderful. Excellent the way everyone but the mother is turned from view leaving mother and pram the star of the shot and yet, well woven into the action. Excellent.

A wonderful nostalgic picture Alan. I remember when people dressed like that. And I remember when womens nylons had seems. My mother always asked either my father or me if her seems were straight before we went out. I agree with billcody (my brother by the way who gave me the website) that this picture in sepia makes it look really authentic, Sig...

The display contains a lot of nostalgia and something good lost for ever. Good choice on toning.
