I am a retired computer guy who is now enjoying golf and re discovering photography. Four years ago I had a little personal fight with cancer to re-focus my priorities in life. It was in the rather long recovery process that I became interested in photography again and bought a Nikon D40. That got me hooked and one year later moved up to a D90 and some nice glass. Now spend most of my time between the golf course (providing the weather is OK) and expanding my photographic horizons.

 

 

The kit as at January 17th 2010.
