I am new to Ugly Hedgehog but so happy that I found it. It is a great forum for a budding amateur photographer like me.
Although my main hobby for many years has been restoring classic cars (mostly British), I am begining to phase down and take a bigger interest in photography.
I have had many digital cameras over the years. I have just bought a Sony NEX-5 Mirror less camera, and am amazed at the things it will do.
I would like to hear from others who know and use the Sony NEX series camera.
Here is a photo I took today of a cat that visits our house. I have named her "Phantom"

Welcome to UHH Peter! We enjoy our forum, here. And sharing is what makes it great!
Your cat reminds me of all cats: two faced! I'm a dog person...can you tell. Nice pic, though you need to watch your shutter speed with cats. They are like shooting an action scene all the time!
I hope you have some photos of some of your car projects we can see someday. I love looking at old Morris Minis and Morgans, MG-TC's and TD's, etc. etc.
Thanks for joining!

Thanks Danilo
I just sold my 1950 MG-TD, back to the guy I bought it from 23 years ago! Last year I sold my Bentley S2 to a friend who runs a wedding car hire business. The year before that I sold my Jaguar S type.......all restored by myself. Yes I am phasing down...too old to do this stuff. My current and last restoration is a 1960 Autobianchi Bianchina Trasformable. I am told there are only 18 left in the US......the rest just rusted away!
Some photos for your interest. Peter
