Update in October 2010. I had a successful first season at the Ware and District Photographic Society. With many years of pictures to choose from, I won the beginners league competition for Colour prints and Black & White prints - I will have two trophies to collect at some time.

I have been taking my camera to Hertford Rugby Football Club regularly since about February and I have a Photobucket account on which I store albums of each game - home and away. Here is a link to my Photobucket home page -

I post on RMweb now and then and the images are hosted on here. RMweb is a model railways forum with lots of information, pictures and chat about models, railways, and a little bit of everyday life - recomended.

You will see the Flickr bar on the right, this is where I put larger images, better quality than those on this site because there is no size restriction - some of the images I have on Flickr are 10Mb, compared to about 150-250kb on here.

On my site are photographs I have taken on my visits around heritage railways, aeroplane displays, Hertford rugby games and museums as well as general pictures that take my fancy. I did a basic photography course at Hertfordshire Regional College in 2006/7 and learned a few new tricks. I have been using a camera for many years, starting with an old Zenit E when I was about 13 and moving through a Pentax A3 and a K1000 onto digital with a Nikon D50 and a Nikon D80. My current camera is a Nikon D300s which is an absolute joy to use, very tough and very flexible.

Just as an offer to anyone passing through, if you email me with the details of any picture I have on this site I will send you a printed copy, A4 size, printed on my Canon iP6700D, free of charge. One per visitor until further notice. If you use the link to Flickr and see an image of mine on there you would rather have, that will be fine.

This site is quite easy to look after thanks to my helpful host (many thanks Matt) and because it is built using Plone - have a go yourself and keep safe surfing.

Have a look at the site map, which you will find at the top of this page. This will let you wander around and see everything there is to see.
