Berwick, AUSTRALIA

Retired Australian Professional Structural Engineer.
Photographer since 1950, and currently an active member of the Pakenham Camera Club in Australia..
I enjoy travel, landscape, bird and architectural photography.
I started with an Exacta Varex in 1955; then I became a devotee of Olympus. I have owned Olympus OM1/2/4 series cameras which I used during worldwide travels on business. In retirement I now regularly visit my son and grandchildren in Japan; and have seen almost every corner of their beautiful country. I still travel frequently within and outside of Australia.
I embraced digital photography with enthusiasm in 2000 and my current Olympus digital camera bodies are E3 and E5.
My Olympus lenses are 14-54, 50-200, 70-300, 35mm F3.5 and 50mm F2.0 macro lenses, and EC14 Teleconvertor.
I use Apple (15" MacBookPro and 27" IMAC ) computers, then work over my images using Aperture 3, and Perfect Resize .
I produce A3 size competition prints with my Epson R1800.
My old slides are digitized using an Epson Perfection 2400 scanner driven by VueScan software….
