Hello from Solihull

[Geebee]

Not long joined up, although I had the website saved for a while, I currently live in Solihull, famous for the Land Rover.

I've been a professional photographer since 1985, I'm due to retire in 2023, but I can't see me putting the cameras away, as I still enjoy taking photographs, my main subjects are landscape/seascapes and travel, Getty images and travel magazines are still interested in my work, so I'll carry on while there's still a market for my work.

I'm looking forward to getting back to travelling once things get a little easier, way too many hoops to jump through at the moment to even think of travelling overseas, but I have a few trips booked for next year.

And a big welcome to you Geebee

Welcome! It’s good here, definitely one of the friendliest (if not THE friendliest) forums I’ve ever been on…

Good to see you making yourself known to us Geebee.... Nice to have another member in the Midlands  too . Looking forward to having the benefit of an expert professional  on our books too ...  Heading down the lane marked "Retirement" can be a daunting prospect but it's great if one's work has involved something that many of us love as a hobby too.. so a very warm welcome to you and your camera. As  other members have iterated ... we may not be the biggest Photography Forum  but we have a reputation for  being probably the friendliest .... Biggest isn't always best  !

Hi

[Geebee]

Apart from photography, I also write articles for magazines, motoring and hobby, which I've been doing since 1994, all photographs were taken by myself.

Welcome to the site, I'm not too far away from you and am regularly involved in organising photo meets in Birmingham.  Definitely not a professional but have had a book documenting Birmingham in images published.
