You are The Wheel of Fortune
Good fortune and happiness but sometimes a species of
intoxication with success
The Wheel of Fortune is all about big things, luck, change, fortune. Almost always good fortune. You are lucky in all things that you do and happy with the things that come to you. Be careful that success does not go to your head however. Sometimes luck can change.

I'm an outdoorsy person, i love mountains first and foremost but generally interested in anything natural on them, as i get older my body is starting to fall to bits so have bought my own "wheelchair" my subaru to get me further up that track so i don't have to walk so far!! - but i still tend to forget sometimes and then regret it later. As well as mountains i also love Old stuff, rocks, archaeology, history and as in most places the oldest buildings are churches though i'd class myself as pagan its all interesting.




Got my first camera when i was 7, a Kodak Instamatic 126 - i had it for years, square photos!!!
Another photographing friend gave me his old Practika 35mm SLR camera.
At some stage I aquired an Olympus XA but lost it a few years later!!
Before i went to K2 i bought a Riccoh KR10X because i was advised it would work better in extremes of temperature - we had a difference some days of 80 degrees centigrade i had no problems!!!. For most of my big holidays i took slide film & now have the problem of how to convert the photos to digital.

When i first came to Flickr my Riccoh was still in use but almost sadly now, I've gone digital - firstly my old fave, my Nokia N73. Then i bought a Fuji Finepix A920 but I've now sold it.
Bought a Nikon D90 20/5/09
WoW had it two years and still learning to use all its myriad of functions




I am well over 21

If you are looking for things, i'm alphabetical, apart from collections which are a bit random but are a good way of starting to find what you're looking for but might not be there anymore!!
