Retired, amateur, happy snapper that sometimes gets lucky. I took up this hobby, after some years away from it, when the digital world arrived. This medium gives so much more versatility that taking pictures is now more of a pleasure. I joined Flickr as I was looking for inspiration away from 'happy snaps' and found it in abundance. With the encouragement from other members I have become more adventurous and I think more creative as well. So, thanks to all out there who have given me help.
