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

A very nice shot of an interaction between a human and an animal. It gives a strong suggestion of both emotion and movement, and the touch evokes a very strong sense of the tactile.

Aye, I have been mighty concerned with your absence but I also know that you always give what you can and you aren't about to fade away without a word. Winter is a time to rest and begin anew so, let's see, we can give you about another month and a half and then... Back to the Bricks! LOL This is a tender shot and very lovely to see the momentary bond of man and nature.

This is such a wonderful photograph! It's easy to see the connection these two creatures made together. Don't worry about commenting, my friend! Just do what makes you happy. When I need a break, I often will just stop by and lurk, looking at photos but not commenting. It keeps me feeling connected without expending energy I need for other things. Have a wonderful trip!
