Retired pilot, teaches aviation theory freelance, up to Airline standards.

I've loved photography since I was a boy (recent carbon dating shows me currently at 72). My recent toy is a Nikon D300s which I absolutely love and am still getting used to it and have bought the 12-24mm lens to play with.

Been on Flickr for about two years and have had an absolute ball. What I really appreciate are the friends I've made worldwide and the seemingly endless amounts of help, advice, encouragement, and helpful critique that's making me into a better photographer day by day.

Organic gardening is another passion.
