I am such a slug...I never introduced myself, or made a formal entry into your forum. I just barged in like a bull with too much room to blunder about. Sorry, it was a bit rude of me. Now, after a week or two of wandering about your forums threads, putting in my two-cents here and there, interacting with a few folks, posting some decent, some meh stuff, I will endeavor from this point on to be more genteel, be less of a thread hog and take my time blundering onward and upward.
I am a retired high school art/photography/film (video-production taught as a film class) teacher, former professional film photographer (35mm - 4x5) who shot what he was told to shoot - mostly school pictures, sports teams, lots of big machines and more than my fair share of el cheapo weddings. I have also worked in the publishing arena as a culling reader - still do to a much lesser degree and I am quite enamored with Mini Coopers - I own two. I have only been seriously shooting a DSLR since November of 2010 when I got my Nikon D7000 with the standard 18-105 kits lens, Since then, I've acquired a nifty 50 1.8, 35 1.8, 100mm Tokina Macro, 55-300mm zoom and just sold my 24-70 2.8 to acquire a 70-200 2.8 with a 1.7 teleconverter. I am really looking forward to learning to use that lens.
Most days, I shoot early and late, play with some alternative processes (Salt, PT/PD, Ziatype, some Gum Bichromate and dink about with Cyanotype), do post production work, edit images, read a good book, occasionally channel surf, eat, sleep and I have a lot of fun. Hey, I'm retired; everyday is Saturday!
Thanks, belatedly for allowing me to join your merry little group of photographers.
