Me?
I'm obsessive about everything I do (except DIY [shudder]), bought my secondhand bridge camera S9600 in 2008 and launched myself into the world of digital and photoshop. Boy, is there a LOT to learn!
Soon after, a Canon 450D became the weapon of choice with various glasses and ventures into different disciplines. People are still a struggle to me as you will see a distinct lack of them in my photostream. The beginning of 2011 saw me leap into Full Frame with a secondhand Canon 5D and various accessories. The journey continues!
Now an avid fan of Twitter, you can find me on @carlsphotograph (not enough room for the "y") but beware ..... I do like to chatter about daft things!
If you are in or near Tunbridge Wells, then get involved in the local Flickr group. Discussions over a pint on the first Monday of every month at the Royal Oak, on Prospect Road. We organise regular events to suit all styles of photography.
Anyone looking for an on-line camera club full of fantastic pictures and friendly advice should visit www.photography4allforum.co.uk - it is a closed forum but getting past Kenny is worth the effort. It is the friends in this forum that have helped me on my journey more than anywhere else.

Andreas-photography says:
"What can i say about Carl? Well he is certainly a great guy, a patient guy, a a great photographer.
Its not the camera that makes great pictures its the person behind the lens , Carl has a superb eye for detail and carefully assesses every scene before pressing the shutter. He is also very dedicated and will return to places when the light is right.
Most of all I like Carl as he shares his knowledge freely with others along with this he is also very helpful with explain compositions and camera techniques.
Carl is a dedicated photographer producing some superb work, yet he is not like many a great photograph he never brags, he is great fun to be with and helps as much as he can.
Many a person would learn a lot from Carl, I,m proud to call him my friend"20th March, 2011
