hello to one and all.
I've only just come across this forum (linked from Vanilla Days). Seems like as good a place as any to get involved.
I've been into photography (work permitting) for the last ten years or so. I started out with a Zenit rangefinder commemorating the 1980s Moscow Olympics which was a gift from my wife's father. Moved on to Olympus OMs (which I adored). I had a darkroom in the cellar of my previous house. Moving house a couple of years ago meant taking stock and moving in to the digital field.
I'm using a Nikon D200 with a few lenses (18-200, sigma 18-50, sigma 10-20, Nikkor 50) and a few accessories. I mostly do HDR work, which was part of a project I have been working on to document the changing landscape of Manchester.
I am thinking of going two ways next - either black and white urban abstracts or to try to cover and document a local boxing club over a few months.
The link to my website is in my signature. I put it together over the last day or so (trial with Zenfolio) and would welcome any comments/critiques.
Cheers one and all
