I am early retired and an amateur photographer living in the West Midlands, England.

Early life interest in working professionally started quite well. I worked as a photographic assistant for FOSECO (FS) in Tamworth, Staffordshire and then at a photographic studio (Arthur Pawson) in Wednesbury, West Midlands.

I took a diverse employment turn after some disappointment and worked within the Civil Service until I retired on the company pension in 2019 after 40 years.
