Russ G's photostream  

I've been an amateur photographer on and off since I was a teenager and bought my first 35mm SLR Camera, a Canon EOS 650 in 1988 and loved it. Since then I bought my first Digital SLR camera, a new Canon EOS 400D in April 2007 and now own a Canon 50D, all of which have helped my improving techniques over the years!

My photography falls into two very distinct areas, photo's where I'm capturing those moments with my family and keeping a record of them over the years, so I can look back and go , do you remember that..... The second part is where I'm trying to improve my photography by being creative with what I shoot, pushing my skills and generally learning how to use the full potential of my camera. The combination of the two makes some very interesting (and not so interesting) shots, which I share here and at my website

I work in the Technology industry and I've been fortunate enough to work in some great technology/communication companies, details of which you can see on my Google Profile or at Linkedin.

When I'm not working or out taking photos my other favourite pastime is spending time with my family, especially my three boys Henry, George & William and of course Sarah my better half!
