Recently retired from 40 years in HVAC industry (heating and cooling).
My real story started in 1968 when I joined the United States Navy as a photographers mate...Plenty of experience shooting around the world with my trusty Pentax 35 mm. Mostly slides. Stateside for final year of active duty was at
The Naval Photo Center in Washington DC.. Most time was in dark rooms and portraits. Got out and hooked up with a local photographic studio shooting High school kids and babies....Got to be tedious and boring. Went to school for HVAC and here I am 40 years later, going full speed ahead in the digital age.. It's fun and challenging and the only downside is the fact that my other half can never find me...I'm out looking for "that" shot...

Welcome to Uglyhedgehogs. Just be aware that if your other half does find you, you might hear "You have already taken one picture of it, why do you need to take more?" It's best to get her into it, but it is a double edge sword. She may learn to out shoot you, take all the good equipment, and make you carry everything.

Welcome to the forum, JoBarq. You'll find lots of friends & plenty of good advice here. I graduated from PH "A" school in November 1967 and retired from the Air Force in June 1988. There are a number of veterans here on the Hog. Looking forward to seeing some of your work.

Welcome! Thanks for your service. I was a Yeoman from 1963-1970.
