I am an amateur photographer and have been for the past twenty years. In real life I am an executive chef and I have travelled and worked all over the world from Africa to Brazil. I wish I had been a more accomplished photograper at the time. I am Irish and live in Roseburg Oregon . I look forward to a long association with this site.
Before digital I used a Nikon F2 and still do. I use a Nikon D200 a Leica Digilux 2 and a Nikon Coolpix I take everywhere with me for those unexpected moments.
