"Photography as a creative expression, or what you will, must be seeing plus. Seeing alone would mean factual recording.

But photography is not at all seeing in the sense that the eyes see....it's not seeing literally, it's done with a reason, with creative imagination....."

Edward Weston to Ansel Adams, January 28 1932

I have loved photography since my early teens (45+ yrs ago) when I started out with a "box camera" and then graduated to a Pentax Spotmatic.

After many years using a range of 35mm and medium format film cameras, I am now a convert to Canon digital and just love working with my 5D MK I.

I am constantly amazed by the work of all my Flickr friends and I value the feedback, the sharing, common interests and our diversity. My life and my photography is enriched by all your contacts.

I especially like recording colour & shape and seeing the magical contrast between natural and man made shapes and colours.

Thanks for your visit and feedback.
