My first experience of any camera was my mother’s Box Browning, that at the age of 9 decided to clean and strip down to see how it worked…..it didn’t after that..!!
My Dad subscribed to the National Geographic and I read and looked in wonder at the fantastic photography…….it was Inspirational.
The first SLR Camera that I bought was the Olympus OM10…with manual adapter and 35mm – 105mm Lens with Macro facility…..it was and still is a lovely camera…..I fell in love with Olympus…….their photographic ethos and innovation …….
I progressed to the Magnificent Olympus OM4Ti…..and a range of their Pro lenses….the 21mm f2 being my favourite as I loved the results it produced with landscape’s………
My loyalty to Olympus has me with the 4/3’s CSC system…..wonderful lenses and a great Pro camera in the OM-D E-M1……..
I have so much to learn……..Flash photography, Studio, Macro, Street…….Photoshop, Lightroom, Computer use etc….please feel free to help me….I have learnt so much in just a few weeks…..I am looking forward to years of skills development, fun and frustration………Just keep the McVities Rich Tea biscuits flowing………Oh and Twinings Lady Grey tea…..
