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

Great perspective here, Alan, and what impressive restoration on this engine wheel!

Superb composition Alan, as you know I cannot get down to get these sort of details, so I'm glad you took this one. A lot of people don't notice such fine details on a restored engine, but the restorers pay such attention as to get it as near as possible to the original. They don't realise half the time how long it takes to do a job like this. Look at the 'Flying Scotsman' now, in the workshop stripped down bare, one chap said it would be 2013 before it's back on the tracks, another five years, its already been in there for nearly three years. Excellent work, a bit grainy but that only adds to the atmosphere of the place. Bravo!!!!!
