My name is Clive, resident in Cape Town, South Africa. I am an amateur photographer who has been enjoying the medium in a more serious manner since 2003.
I took a trip to the UK armed with a Minolta Maxxum 7000 that I had inherited from my Dad.
Out of the holiday snaps, I managed to get a few that I felt were quite good, but had no idea of how I managed to get them 'right'.
Since then I have done a couple of courses in the darkroom and joined a local photographic society where I was on the committee for a while.
Hopefully I am getting it 'right' more often these days.
I have a Minolta Maxxum 7 and being tied into the lens system, the Sony A100 DSLR was my introduction to the digital world. This has recently been upgraded to the Alpha SLT-A55 and I have to admit that I have shot more digital in the last five years than film!
My daughter Kristen (Kris10) and son Sean (fotoSean) have accounts here too, in the hope that they will learn too and share my passion! Sadly they have been rather quiet of late, much like their dad...
August 2015 marks the end of my 3 years as coordinator for the Photographic section of Renderosity. What a wonderful time of my life that I thoroughly enjoyed! Thank you all for the opportunity!
Keep the smile alive,
Clive

Oh dear - did I pass my grey down South! Sorry to hear you are feeling grey Clive. Look at you goats and smile! :)))) Lovely old girl and I often wonder what they think when they just lay like this! Hugs from Sodom!! :)

She does look a bit pensive. Maybe you should lie down next to her on the kitchen floor and snuggle up. You'd probably both feel better! This is a wonderful photo.

One of your best. You've got this low down picture taking figured out...I refer once again to your avatar:-) If I try this with my pooch, she immediately comes over and tries to lick the lens or me or both.
