Live in the Southeast US. Worked at a bank for 34 years but displaced and took retirement. Take pictures for fun and enjoy looking at those of others who are gifted and there are a lot of you out there.

Passion for travel, although limited by budget. Zoo frequenter and animal lover. Trying to get better at people pictures. No mastery over my camera but for me it is the entertainment value that means the most. Actually print a lot of pictures too so I hope to look through albums in my older age and relive the memories when I can no longer travel to far away places. Now, always looking for fun things to do and adventures that I am capable of doing.

Currently using a Nikon Z6 with Nikon 24-300 a and Nikon Coolpix B700 (I love the edit capabilities on it and Arenas often let you in with it since it does not have a detachable lens so I can get some decent entertainment shots.) Also own a Nikon Coolpix AW130 for underwater shots and an old Canon Rebel T7 with Tamron 16-300mm as a backup on trips.
