I started taking photos in July 1980 when I went to see Bob Marley and the Wailers play live in Dublin. I used a Kodak Instamatic 126mm camera for the event and havent stopped since. I was given a loan of a Pentax SLR in 1981 by a friends father and bought my 1st SLR in spring of 1982, The Pentax K1000 which I still use. In 1988 I upgraded to a Canon T-70 which I still use, I've also got the EOS 5

I started using DSLR's in 2005 when I bought the Canon EOS 300D later upgrading to the EOS 30D .......... I've used the EOS 5D, EOS 5DMK II, EOS 7D, EOS 1DMK II

I have no particular brand loyalty , though there are clearly some better than others, I like to try out different cameras be they FILM or Digital as it keeps me interested and creative. I also get to Tutor people quite often so it's good to have a broad working knowledge and experience of equipment, techniques and approach's

if you like like or dislike my work please leave positive critical feedback. I respond to most personal correspondence

Keyboard Shortcuts

Just think about it… What if you were trapped under something heavy and the mouse was out of your reach? Scary, right? That's exactly why we have these keyboard shortcuts so you can still use Vimeo until the help arrives.
