The more things change....

Postby Manta on Fri Apr 04, 2014 9:58 am

....the more they stay the same :)

Hi all.
It's been a few years between shots. So glad to see the forum remains an informative, entertaining and supportive community. I got distracted with other things for a while there and my photography took quite a back seat but after some house moves, job moves and new lease on life I'm looking forward to rekindling my photo fire and rejoining the shenanigans here!
Cheers!
Simon

Cheers Max, Geoff and Chris :)

It's certainly a bit different now compared to old D70Users days!

If my memory serves me correctly the last time you posted Simon you were photographing something to do with fire fighters or accidents or maybe lizards :up:

Most likely lizards, frogs, snakes and insects, Chris - with the occasional landscape and monthly photo challenge entry!

Welcome back Simon!


Good to back on board Trevor. I'm at Hamilton now and ride through Teneriffe/Newstead pretty frequently - we must catch up for a coffee if you're still there. Or the 'Creek for a steak and beer!

You always were a persuasive talker Simon!

I'm still at Teneriffe and there are plenty of coffee spots handy, and I could easily be convinced to have a breakfast if you ride early or a steak and beer later in the day.

Look forward to some pix when you have a chance too.

CHEERS. :cheers:

Welcome back Simon. Dust off that old trusty, dusty D70 and.....on the other hand, donate it to the camera museum. :D
