Hi all. I've been reading U.H. for about a year now and thought It's about time to sign in.
I have taken pictures since 11 years of age. Still have the picture I took with a 49 cent camera I purchased at walgreens using a 15 cent roll of 127 film. Yes, I'm very old. I have moved up in all the years to a Canon 60D.
:D

You have some very nice shots on Flickr. I always like to see other peoples work. Isn't it fun?
I have a Flickr account also but can't remember the URL. Hey! I remember the URL: http://www.flickr.com/people/rzwiesler88/

Welcome, Dick. My wife and I lived in Western Springs for four years a long time ago. I've been at photography longer than you. I was high school newspaper photographer my senior year in Chicago (Taft High) something like 62 years ago.

Thanks for the welcome ronwade. I don't think your older though. The first picture I took was in 1940 I was 11 then.

Dick,
You have me by five years. I was born in 1934 and took my first box camera pictures and processed them about 1947.

I don't usually give my age away but what the heck, I was born in 29. I still have one of the orginal prints of my Mom from my first roll of film from 1940.

Thanks Junebug35. I have been on since June of this year but haven't posted. I thought I had some good answers for some of the questions but many other hogs had great ones also. I will try to contribute when I can.
Thanks again.
