I am too old to reveal my date of birth! But young enough to enjoy photography and many other things - film, reading, writing poetry and prose fiction, walking, surfing, x-country skiing etc. I have a Brittany Spaniel called Rinka and a cat called Biri. I live in a cottage, one of the first in the village of Paddington, now almost downtown Sydney.

I take black and white film photos and have my own darkroom and print the ones I like. I'm now getting into digital photography and particularly like doing things on the computer - a lot easier than in the darkroom! I have a Canon EOS 20D and my film camera is a Canon too so I can interchange the lenses.

I speak Italian, read Italian literature and love Italy. Patricia
