Saw this forum mentioned on another forum I frequent, clicked on it and thought the place looked interesting... so here I be.

I'm an older retired geek who spent 38 years working with computers, long distant switching machines and long-haul digital carrier systems in the telecommunications industry. Been taking photos since I got my Brownie camera more than half a century ago and one of these days, I'm might get good at it!

Presently shooting with a Nikon D300 through a variety of lenses. Favorite subjects include the grandkids, flowers, birds and scenics.

Look forward to enjoying everyone's photos.

Know the beast fairly well. I cut my teeth on the old 4A crowbar and then spent most of my time working on the #4ESS in West Palm Beach and Atlanta. Worked on a couple 5E machines as well as DMS 100s, 100/200s and 200s and a few old 1As.

It was a lot of fun!
