About

2017 saw many changes to my life. Turned 60 at the end of 2016. My daughter moved away to another part of the country. Purchased a new camera, a micro four thirds, Panasonic Lumix GX80. With this camera my old Pentax fit lenses are getting a new lease of life by using a cheap adaptor.

2018 Joined a drawing and painting class at HERA in Dundee. Look forward every week to meeting my class mates and experimenting with different mediums for a couple of hours.

2020 With the appearance of the covid pandemic photo shoots are sometimes a little difficult. My HERA art classes are still going ahead though but in an online version via zoom.
