Smile Hi Im new

Hi all as you can see I’m Paul and am new to the site. I live in the Bury St Edmunds area in Suffolk, UK. I am happily married to Carole, we have two super sons who are both married and flown the nest.
I had my first camera back in 1958 an AGFA something 120, up until a couple of years ago when I had a clearout. Hell knows why?
I’m a Canon person with both film and digital. I have a 10D which I purchased four and a half years ago and love it to bits, well that’s what Carole said, or word along that line.
Digital has provided me with lots of enjoyment and has with doubt enhanced my ability and skill.
I do enjoy working at the PC, however I’m an out side person who likes to be behind the camera rather than sitting with the computer. I do prefer to get the shot right in camera although the keepers still seem to remain low.
I look forward to meeting up with you all at some time in the future.
Regards
Paul

Hi Paul,

Welcome to the site. I can empathise with you for your wife's oppinion. Mine is just the same. My wife tells me I think of her and fantasize about photography. Anyway lots more like minded friends here, so be assured you are not alone.

Best regards.....Phil
