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

Nice one Alan, did you take this one on Friday, it was a great day here with lots of sun, I hope it was like that for you, and that you all had a good time. If you can with so many tagging along, I'd much sooner it be just a couple or three. Lol. You know what I mean! I wonder if you took this from the spot you pointed out when we went there, I am still planning another trip to the same place, but round the castle museum I think. Excellent capture, I would like to get this rose from the inside, but they are a load of robbers, £9.50 to look round a church. Thinking about it though Middy charges a fiver, and its only a tenth of the size. Lol. Superb work mate. Bravo!!!!!
