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

Excellent shot Alan, I'm not familiar with this mill, you will have to tell us where it is, it looks quite interesting. Now the Brown Cow is a different matter, that place I am familiar with, well I used to be, I have sunk a few pints more than a gallon in there I can tell you. Shame about the Three Owls, but happen as well it did come down rather hard, I was out shopping with Pauline. When we went into the supermarket it was sunny when we came out to load the boot, the hail was lashing my poor bald head and stinging my ears. Superb pov for this, were you stood in the river? Excellent work. Bravo!!!!!5+++++

Super capture Alan! Looks a great place! I know Norden, but haven't heard of this place. I'll have to try and find it.

Wonderful place! Very romantic! In my fantasies Robin Hood comes away in this moment. When this stones could talk! A wonderful bridge. The arch must have seen many floods, but it seems unsinkable! Thanks for sharing.
