'Ian Humes' photostream

I’ve been interested in photography since school days when I had my first “proper” camera – a Zenit E. A family friend taught me to develop and process B&W and allowed me to use his dark room. I still remember the excitement of seeing my first photograph develop before my eyes.
Down the years I’ve owned a variety of Canon film SLRs. In April 2006 I bought my first digital camera – a Canon 350d which simply opened up a new world and rekindled my interest in photography.
I particularly enjoy landscape photography and making black and white images. I think I have a reasonable eye for composition but I need to slow down and work a location more. Flickr has been a great source of inspiration and ideas for me and I appreciate comments and feedback left by friends, contacts and others who look at my pictures.
Current kit is –
Canon EOS 50d
Canon EF 50mm f1.8 II
Sigma 18-50mm EX DC
Sigma 10-20mm EX DC
Sigma 18-250mm DC HSM OS
Sigma 105mm EX DG macro

ifido says:
"A man on a mission, passionate about his photography, cool dude too, not adverse to sharing ideas and techniques. I have had the pleasure of an outing or two with Ian and you know you’re with an expert if they produce a tripod, more than I ever do. His recent trip to Iceland has produced some outstanding images that make me shiver with envy, now added to my holiday wish list. His local adventures are up their with his best shots too, a mono technique that is equalled by few others, the man is a photographic wizard, a genius, and if he is not on your contacts list then you’re missing out on a lot, check out this photostream and you will know what I’m saying. Pure class."
