Hi Everyone,
I have just joined and thought that I should write a few lines introducing myself.
I am 51 years old, married with one 13 year old son.
I presently live in Perth, Western Australia. I moved here about 3 years ago, after being reluctantly transferred from Tasmania. I have also lived in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney along with various places throughout Papua New Guinea.
I work as an airline pilot (A320 Captain) which takes me to quite a few places throughout South East Asia.
After family, my real love is photography - especially landscape photography. I have been taking photos for about 8 years now (sometimes on and off) and made the move to micro 4/3 just over a year ago.
I find Perth, particularly hard with regard to finding places to photograph that will suit someone into landscape photography. This is why in my last paragraph I said, "sometimes on and off". Until recently, I hadn't taken a photo for about 2 years!
This had to change - life is just too short.
I plan to broaden my horizons from just landscapes and move into macro, b/w etc.
Anyway, enough rambling form me.
I plan to be a regular around here and look forward to getting to know you all.
Regards,
PS. I chose tubedriver as my member name because I am.
Shaun.
