Photography

Bought an SLR in 1969, took thosands of photographs, but as time moved on, couldn't even remember what some of the shots were all about. Eventually my usage of the camera dropped to a roll a year perhaps.

Then in March of 2004, did a cycling trip and borrowed a digital, that was interesting, and a few months later, borrowed it again for another trip. But for the third trip, I bought a 3.1 mega pixel special and just started clicking away.

You develop another mindset with a digital as no doubt all owners of digital camers know. No longer do you have to worry about the cost of film and printing. You just click away and delete anything not worth keeping. My grandkids borrow the camera when they visit. They take 100s and recently have been using it to make short movies. They think its great.

Now I am going to try and find out how to put one of my better shots on the blog. Mmmmm, I have uploaded something, but where is it? ..... a little later, I found it at the start of the post, and then re-editin the blog, I simply moved the relevant code to the bottom of the page where you will see it.
