Hi everyone.
I am a recently retired "oldie", who took up photography as a hobby about 35 years ago. That was in the days of film (remember that stuff?) and lenses that had to be focused manually (remember those?). I was a member of a camera club for many years and also did my own darkroom prints - colour and black & white. It was all good fun in those days, but I am now very happy to be doing it the digital way on my computer. I still miss the smell of darkroom chemicals though. I lived all my life in the vicinity of Johannesburg, but recently moved to Port Alfred on the coast, in search of a quieter life with less traffic congestion and a better climate. My main photographic interests are landscapes, wild life and (wait for it - drum roll) birds. There is no camera club here in Port Alfred, so I look forward to participating in the various forum activities, as a way of keeping my photography going.
Cheers, Tony
