I have been a keen amateur photographer since I first purchased a Zenith E camera in the late 1970s. I took photographs of anything and everything! This camera with its various lenses and filters gave me a good grounding in the technical aspects of photography before I progressed on to what, at the time, was a very advanced Pentax ME Super.

Many years of service and several thousands of pictures later the Pentax was relegated to Second Division when I was given a Bronica EtrSi as a gift. Here was a camera which enabled me to produce large scale prints when the occasion arose and had the flexibility of interchangeable backs, allowing quick changes from colour to black and white film.

Then along came the digital age. No way was I going to jump onto the band wagon and abandon the quality of film. However, on a visit to Cambrian Photography I was shown images taken with digital cameras. I was hooked. In quick succession I bought two Fuji Fixed lens cameras and then moved up to a Nikon SLR some fifteen months ago.

From the early years of taking anything and everything I have now narrowed the field and enjoy best taking photographs of plants, animals and people.

Since I joined the Club in September last year I have enjoyed the friendly atmosphere, the constructive comments of the judges and informative and humorous talks by guest speakers.
