I’ve been taking photos of family and holidays for the best part of 40 years, but have only been taking it seriously for the past four. I attended a ‘DSLR for beginners’ workshop, joined my local camera club and have been bitten by the photography bug ever since! I love to enter photography contests and the feedback I receive is great for helping me to improve.
