I am here at Hoodsport Wa. south end of the Olympics on Hoods canal. Long time shooter with Pentax spotmatic SLR
but 8 months ago purchased a Sony HX1 bridge cam. and really enjoy it. I am retired and have given up on all that heavy SLR equipment, any way you can coax some pretty good pic. out of the HX1 all things considered.
Sorry to say photography is not my #1 passion but is my # 2 after sailing, and anyway they to go together nicely.
I am looking for photo buddies or club that are in my area, so far no luck.
I enjoy this forum.

Welcome, Dandij. I've always wanted to learn to sail...never got the chance. But, you're right, both go hand in hand.

Thank You David.
Sailing is much like photography in that it is very adictive.

Hi neighbor,
Yes we are close only about 1hr 20min.. I spend a lot of time in Port Townsend. I would love to live there. We some times visit on our boat and sometimes by vehicle. I have been on many photo shoots there, and have photographed every Victorian house in town and several boating shoots. Maybe our paths will cross in the future.
Do you recognise these places?
