Started with an old Canon 10 years ago, and not much idea what to do with it, or with the pictures afterwards!
Joined HPIC and started to learn. The Special Interest Groups that the club has helps develop skills relating to particular aspects of photography. In my case this is Portraits and Landscapes. As my other hobby is hiking, I get to combine 2 hobbies in one, especially the Dales, Lake and Scotland.
When the weathers bad, there is always Portraits to enjoy shooting!
