I started out with photography four years ago and joined my wife on Flickr. As I often went along on photoshoots it seemed logical and fun to get myself a camera as well.
Computers posed a bit of a problem. I had never used computers before and soon found out that Windows computers are so named because after half a hour fighting with it you want to throw it out the window.
A second-hand iMac brought salvation.
Within a day's time I got the hang of working in Photoshop Elements and Pixelmator.
These days I own a huge iMac, an iPhone and iPad, leaving my wife to wonder whether or not my mid-life crisis has manifested itself in a sudden embrace of modern technology.

The cameras I use these days:

Panasonic DMC-FZ38
Panasonic DMC-LX3

iPhone 4S

Canon EOS 7D

Aside from that I collect and drink Single Malt Whisky and sometimes do a master class nosing and tasting.
I collect and write with fountain pens.
I'm a member of the IPMS, a model building society.
Sometimes I still draw, paint or design my own little works of art (or fun, what you may call it).
And I love to listen to music.

I'm married and have a very sweet little son.
We are an emancipated household; my wife has chosen to pursue a career while I stay home and take care of the kid and do the cooking and cleaning.

I'm sort of like a fungus, give me some time and I'll start to grow on you.

    "Ah, what can I say about Mr. Any Blunder that hasn't already been said? He has a keen eye for compositions, a knack for story telling, and an even keener sense of humor. His warmth shines through his comments. He never fails to brighten my day with either his posts or his visits.

    Thank you, my dear Blunder, for being such a great friend.

    Oh, and evidently, he is quite the cook. If I can only figure out a way for Mr. Blunder to visit and make dinner.... :D"

    "Every now and then one meets a new friend and forms an immediate bond. To me, anyone who takes the time to "hand write" a few words already qualifies as a special person! Calligraphers are a rare breed. Blunder is a unique soul with a wonderful sense of humor and generous spirit. I look forward to following his yellow brick road!"
