How long have been in photography?

I had my first camera, a Instamatic 110, when I was around 10 (~1975). I used to try and take realistic pictures of my model cars and airplanes...LOL! Got my first SLR, a Minolta X570, when I was in the USAF (King Salmon, AK) in 1990. Got "serious" with photography when I bought my first DSLR, a Canon 300D in 2005.
 
Since September of '08, that's when I bought my first camera with my own hard earned scrilla dolla'. Been addicted like a heroin junkie since then. :drool:
 
I started chasing light with lenses in 1969.

But was the Buckster Swinging in 69? :D
Nah, I didn't get a Swinger until '73, handed down from my dad. ;)

Did my first 'painting with light' experiments with it:

:lol:

I've been going at it since April 2010.

Same as erose.. but I have way more posts than her.. so I am better :)

Started April 2010. I messed around with photoshop since 1998.
 
Always wanted to dabble but only started to get into it just over a year ago. Managed to kit myself out but struggle to get enough time to practice

I started back in the stone age, winding my own film in the basement darkroom. 1976, maybe? Maybe '77?

Didn't do much with it while in the Navy. I really wish I had. I wasn't "into" photography then. I was just a guy with a camera.

I got back into it, full tilt, in 2005 after by band of eight years broke up. I got into it, specifically, to shoot bands. I found that, while I didn't necessarily want to be in a band anymore, I enjoyed the live music environment. That paved the way into concert shooting and shooting national acts.

Once I started traveling, it helped me branch out into doing landscapes and scenics. Now, I'll shoot just about anything...

Gee, 10 years before that I already had sold my first photograph to a newspaper.
 
1992 is when I got hooked. (photography class at art school)
