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 how neat... Excellent work capturing the magic of the lights!! The soccer World Cup - yeah - like most South Africans, I'm dreading it! Wish I could go to the Northpole while it was on!!!

Lovely image! I can't think of anything worse than having the World Cup in my town!

Well caught.. World Cup, of course! I'm gonna have forced on me everywhere I go for the next 6 months! And then we'll lose, because teams that should be English, (Arsenal etc) DON'T have a single player thats British.. How can England provide a national team when all the domestic teams have foreign players! Moan over! (OH! And I don't know for sure that Arsenal do have all foreign players .. most of the time they do!) Well taken picture.. I'm rubbish at night time shots.. Real bad! Rob

Colorful and I'm sure the kids were very excited. Memories for them are made of this. Like it.

beautiful shot!

The effect you got with the lensbaby is great ... it makes this look like the dolphin is swimming in water. Nicely done!
