There's been a bit of discussion on here about the joys and restrictions of film and digital photography.
As you all know, I'm more of a "snapper" than a true photographer, and while I really love looking at what other people can do, I've not really got the training, technique and equipment to pull off what a lot of you can.
However, I enjoy a lot of what I do with the limited equipment I've got, and on a good day with the wind (or sun!) in the right, I think I can get a creditable photo or two. I've always loved night scenes, and yet since I bought this camera way back in 2007, I haven't really gone out and tried to brush up my expertise in that area.
In terms of post-processing, digital photography has been a lot of fun for me. I love doing composite shots, and get a great deal of satisfaction from hand-stitching a panorama. It's not a process that I'd ever want to automate because I love the challenge of trying to get the thing to look seamless.
I marvel at the talent that I see from my friends on here and it does inspire me to try new things.
Anyway, over to you...
