Sorry for the corny title - just couldn't resist.My name is Dennis and I just got back into photography after two-decade layoff. I started off in 35mm in 1973 and lugged a couple of bags of gear, cameras, lenses, etc around the world during a 22 year Navy career. I got out of that habit after kids came along and cribs, diaper bags and car seats elbowed out camera gear for room in the car. Also, while my wife was remarkably patient with my stopping and waiting for just the right lighting, dirty-diapered kids were less so.
I got back into photography after my wife "forced" me to buy a DSLR in December of 2008. We'd gone to a camera store to buy a point and shoot for her to use in her antiques and collectibles business and she caught me looking at a couple of DSLRs in the display case. She suggested I check them out 'just for fun", but, when I tried to give them back to the sales person she asked "Which one do you want?" and refused to leave the store until I chose one.
Sadly, I lost Mrs Sea_Dog to cancer six months later, but fortunately she got to see me revive the passion I once had. My gallery is a lasting tribute to her and our love.

Over the last two and a half years, since learning about Renderosity from a friend, has been a continuous learning and discovery process. The artists here are so amazingly talented and inspirational - and extremely friendly. Seeing their work and reading their comments on mine have allowed me to grow as an artist much faster than I could have on my own.

I have to admit I'd not heard the term micro brew before, but after looking it up I realise it is simply a small brewery specialising in good beers. Cornwall is renowned for these, the local brewery making most of the beer served in the Inns here. I don't drink, but I'm sure those that do favour them. A fabulous shot, so full of colour and perfect reflection. ^=^ I wish you calmer waters in your personal and professional life. ^=^

I agree it's a fantastic shot.... But I wouldn't know anything about beer or wine for that matter I am 56yrs old and had only a half beer my entire life....and had helped some high school girlfriends drink Boone's Farm Wine......one night..It tasted so so..What got me turned against it was one night I got a bottle of Mad Dog 20 20 got deathly sick and upchucked on my parents bed while trying to sneak in...and it wasn't a pretty site at 2 30 am in the morning LOL........So I don't drink....but used to smoke up weed like crazy grin then quit that after a cop pulled over hubby and there in the ashytray was half joint......he got a ticket... and we quit that.......Now hubby really likes beer...excepts he doesn't drink anymore...he has over 2 yrs clean in AA...I guess we are the dull family LOL.. I am addicted to my soft drink Ski...sort of like Mellow Yellow only better...have to have one when I get up...a Ski and a smoke.........let me wake up for about half hour than I get to motivating........no Ski,no smoke oh Lord watch out..........next week nothing by mouth after midnight for a Pet Scan I will be bonkers the test isn't until 2am..........and no food or drink before hand............Bleh:(Why he is ordering this is beyond me...he says to check on my anemia,,,and my weight loss where I got down to 94 lbs 2 months ago...but it also checks for cancer way better than a bone scan..........gonna be a long day............. Glad you got to get a little free time for yourself and even enjoyed the stay and the brewskies at the Pub... You have deserved it......... Great capture...love all the colors..I know I would love Vegas....I would get addicted to the gambling for sure.........playing the slot machines would be my thing as I don't know too much about cards......I know what a Royal Flush is tho,straight,and pair LOL........Would love to go to Vegas to see Chris Angel...maybe check out a show or two...but would have to fly and I have never been on a plane so I would be scared witless........So it would have to be car,limo,taxi, buggy ride, or train for this old fashioned gal.... Sorry for the novel...LOL Love n hugs Susan aka Blush~
