    Hi everyone,

    I live in Bromley, Greater London after spending 14 years in Brazil and my infancy and early adulthood in Scotland. Am now retired after a long career in banking.
    My main hobby is photography and am using a lot of my time to study and trying to always improve my creativity and the quality of images. I tend to photograph landscapes, seascapes and urban subjects but also endeavour to widen the scope and learn new ways of improving images with photoshop (a long learning curve for me but have started attending a course at Adult Education!)

    Best wishes to all

    Fergus aka Fergie

    Welcome. Am long retired myself. Used to live in Lewisham in my early years, not too far from Bromley IIRC.

    Hi Fergie,

    First off; a warm welcome to the CiC forums from me.

    What are you shooting with?

    Could you do us a favour please?
    Could you click Settings (right at the top),
    then Edit Profile (on left)
    and put "Fergie" in the Real Name field
    and "Bromley, Greater London" in the Location field,
    then click the Save Changes button below and to right,
    this helps everyone give you more personal and relevant answers in future (when we've lost track of this post) - thanks in advance.

    Cheers, Dave

    Hi Ted
    Thank you.
    You've moved a long way from Lewisham! We live just a few hundred yards from the the borough of Lewisham and often use the train from the station at Grove Park - it's a small world!!

    All the best
    Fergie

    Thank you Dave for your warm welcome. It is much appreciated and I am looking forward to being a member of this forum where I am sure I will learn a lot and hope to also participate in discussions and competitions.
    I have now managed to fill in my profile as you suggested.

    All the best,
    Fergie

    P.S. I use a Canon EOS 7D and occasionally a Canon EOS 3 with Canon lenses - EF 50mm f1.4 USM, EF 17mm-40mm f4L USM and EF100-400 f4.5-5.6L IS USM.

    Thank you all for your kind words of welcome. I am glad that I found this forum/haven through the website of Cambridge In Colour, recommended by a member of the Bromley U3A Camera Club which I joined last year.

    Cheers
    Fergie
