guess i'l use this as my introduction. I've been shooting pictures for as long as I remember, but I'm not a pro. I just enjoy nature and aircraft. I kinda retired 4 years ago after being laid off. With the job market the way it is I haven't found a real job. I started shooting weddings last year, that lets me earn something. I worked in aviation for 36 years so I have quite a collection of aircraft pictures. My hobbies would be photoraphy, Boy Scouting (34 years now) and anythng outdoors. About 2 years ago I started mentoring boys on line. I work with a boys home and deal with boys who refuse to talk to the counselors and doctors. I have found it gives me a prpose in life now. Kind of a Pay It Forward thing. In Aug of last year I was told I had cancer, kinda of a life changing event. After surgery I am supposedly cancer free. So now I don't take life so seriously. I'm spending as much time as I can with my 5 grand children.
Thanks for the site, I've been looking around now for a couple o weeks.
