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

Well seen and nicely capture Mate...I am itching for it to snow here in the south, I have never ever done any snow shots, even in the old days with roll film, just was never the right snow, in London of course, it's trodden to a black filthy mush in a heartbeat :(

Great detail to include the underside of the shrooms...of all things. Sometimes camera angle makes a lot of difference. Glad you took a walk out and about. Looking forward to a chance here soon. Bill

I was watching the weather forecast this morning Alan and the presenter said there is more to come over the next few days. She said we could expect 20metres on the Pennines overnight, silly woman ment 20cm but even thats a lot eight inches with a slight breeze could mean 10 foot drifts over Blackstone Edge. I'm glad I have no reason to go out, I never minded when I was working, I actually enjoyed it then, but now its tricky underfoot so I have to be wary. Excellent capture mate, a great pov with the underside like that. Superb work. Bravo!!!!!
