I have had a digital camera for about two years but never really found the intrigue of taking great photographs.

Recently, I have been spending more time in the Lake District and this seems to have set the ball rolling.

I have just upgraded my digital camera to a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5 (mainly because it has 10x optical zoom) and am trying out all the functions.

I mainly concentrate on good landscape photos but am broadening my horizon with other shots as and when they present themselves.
