As a child I spent a lot of time around photography as my Dad was an enthusiast which often resulted in myself and siblings either in front of a camera or waiting for a shot to be taken whilst on holiday or on trips out. As a result I remember being keen on having a camera, so on my 7th birthday I was presented with the first that I could call my own – a 110 film cartridge type Kodak and I loved it.

Years In Photography – 38 years,
First Camera – Agfa 110, First SLR – Praktica LTL3 & 50 mm lens
Loosely speaking, I bought my first camera, an Agfa 110 compact, in the May of the 1976, the year I joined the RAF. Armed with a couple of films, I had ideas in my head that I would be in the next edition of National Geographic and I would tabloid news. It may come as a surprise to some, it is to me, that National Geographic have still never heard of me!

Friday, May 2nd, 2014Years in Photography, c. 50yrs
My father often took photographs of the family as I was growing up and I had my first camera, a Kodak 44A, in my early teens. The camera used 127 size roll films and produced 12 x 44mm square negatives per film. My interests developed and I progressed to 35mm and then, around 1964 to an early SLR, a Yashica Penta J.

I have always taken photos as far back as I can recall, but always with point and shoot film cameras (of the 110 and 35mm variety). I didn’t really take photography seriously until I bought a decent point and shoot digital camera which had manual controls.

I dabbled with photography as a child with a Kodak brownie camera, nothing serious just some snaps but later with the advent of digital I got into photography seriously with a Sony compact camera but wasn’t getting the results I wanted.

Tuesday, November 12th, 2013Hi
Well I’ve enjoyed photography for as long as I can remember, I have to thank my late uncle Ken, who used me as a model and then introduced me to the magical world of black and white developing. I carried on my love for post processing at Uni, they had a really professional lab that us students could use, using my first proper camera a canon T50. I only dabbled with photography for a number of years until the dawn of the digital age, in the early days it was very disappointing the image quality was rubbish, as some of my old 2 megabyte images show all too clearly.

Tuesday, September 24th, 2013Hi,
Being as though I suggested this feature I felt it only appropriate that I should kick it off.
I have been into photography all my adult life, my passion really grew when my wife (to be) bought me a Prakitica L2 with a 50mm Pentacon lens for an engagement present when I was 19 (yes, it was a long time ago).
