About
My first photos were taken with a Kodak Brownie 127 and an Instamatic during the '60s but I first started "serious" photography living abroad in the early seventies with a Pentax Spotmatic, first with slides then broadening to b&w especially after joining a camera club (Kingston, Surrey) on returning to England. I had some success in club competitons and exhibitions. Family and other commitments reduced my activity for many years until a few years ago, when we bought a Nikon D50 kit and later a Canon Ixus 980 to take on a trip to India. In 2013 I joined Photo Club Sarladais (Sarlat) here in France to get back to serious picture taking.
I now use a Nikon D750 with 24-85mm zoom and 50mm standard both Nikon, also occassionally a resurrected Tamron Adaptall 70-150 zoom. My snap-shooter is an iPhone 6s, but I'm also going get out the Canon again.
For editing I'm switching from Adobe LR & PS to DxO Photolab3/Nik Collection and Affinity
