Welcome friends and lovers of beauty

I've always been interested in photography using various cameras. I once won a small prize for a picture taken on an instamatic. I now have a Cannon 300D. I need to learn the settings; so it's all experimental at the moment. I'll try to live up to the site's standards.

Love EP. I have made good friends on this site.

One of my interests is poetry.
I like:

"Gray's Elegy in a Country churchyard"

Thomas Hardy's "Weathers"

My favourite author at the moment is Joanna Trollope.

A life changing read was "The Heart of Darkness" by Joseph Conrad. The use of adjectives was staggering.

My Favorite Music is The Trout by Schubert, and Meditation by Thai. I also like the dance of the Flowers from the ballet suite Swan Lake by Tchaikovsky, what a brilliant swirl around the room this gives, reaching a crescendo, of magnificance. I like the Entrance of the Queen of Sheba By Handel, and Iada.

On the lighter side, Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong are favourites of mine.

Time and tide wait for no man, get on EP and watch it fly!
