The Begining

Many Years ago when I was young young back in the early 80's I was given a basic Kodak 110 instant pocket camerawhich started my love for photography. For me like most people it was the excitment of getting your photographs back after a few weeks just to see what you had captured(If anything). Also back then because you only had a max of 32 shots you had to be very selective of what you did.

Then back in the 90s I got my first digital camera looking back quality was not amazing but the joyu of seeing what you had photographed on a little LCD screen deleting the duff ones and carrying on.

Then I got my First DLSR an Olympus E410. This is the camera the reignighted my love of photography. Then later I got my first Nikon. Reason for this choise 3 things fits my chunky hands nicely(tried a others my fingers scrapped against the lenses), choise of lenses and last one is more personal the menue. I find it easy to navigate.

That brings me to now I have allways loved going to Festivals and Gigs and during lockdown all I seemed to do is go to work, get abuse from cuctomers due to lack of toilet paper(yes day job in supermarket), then after alot of personal things as well my mental health deteriated. It was then I realised 2 things kept me going Gigs and Photography.

So around June/July I decided to take things a littl;e more seriously. Then after I started this to my shock I got an email from a promoter asking if I wanted to appy for a pass to do Cavalara Conspiracy like anyone would do replied basicly saying yes, did explain Im not assotiated with any publication Im new to this and shock horror got a pass, have to say was the best experiance in my life.

Since then done mopre shows mainly small ones but still having so much fun.

This photo was one I took at download with my Olympus Rob Zombie took the photograph and put it on his facebook page the feeling was amazing that someone thought it was good enough for that privalige.
