My interest in photography started some 30 years ago and at that time I was using a couple of Canon 35mm cameras and a variety of lenses and accessories. My interest in photography remained keen until a move to Ashford, Kent, in 1998, meant that I had no darkroom space so the cameras were packed away and still remain in boxes in the loft! 5 years ago my interest in photography was re kindled, this time with a Nikon D80 digital camera. I have since invested in a Nikon D7000 and several lenses. A move of House gave me room for a home studio and as I used to do a lot of portrait work I hope to add to my portfolio in the near future.
