I am 65 years old and reside in the western suburbs of Sydney. I am now a full time carer for my elderly mother. I worked on the Railways for 29 years and then had my own lawn mowing business. I have been a keen photographer since my first camera a Kodak Retinette 1A which I bought in about 1963. I hope I have improved some what. I used to nearly always take slides with later Pentax , Richo and Nikon film cameras. I now own a Nikon D5000 DSLR, a Lumix FZ18 and a compact Samsung.
