hi, im 51, educated, literate and articulate. i say what i think, and rarely do airs and graces. im a sort of what you see is what you get person.

i dont suffer fools. life is far too short… oh and im in a wheelchair… have been for 26yrs, but, they only chopped bits off… getting buried bit by bit seems to cut the costs…

im married, 4 kids, and a wolfhound. i teach photography and digital image manipulation. (15yrs) and ive been taking photographs for about 35 years.

i aslo edit and produce a community newspaper, and teach DTP along the way.

I dont use photoshop. I use gimpshop2, or paintshop pro,
my cameras are an E1, and an E500. (and i still have all my 35mm kit, and a 120 mamiya)

and i love taking photographs… not because i get kudos and exaltation, but i see things other people dont. having wheels instead of feet i see the world from about a metre high… and that changes your perspective.
