Hi all, my name is Brian Geoghegan, I am a wheelchair user, following a spinal cord injury at level T12. over five years ago, I was a Plastering Contractor before this happened to me, I have always loved Photography but never had time to follow up on it, but now I have all the time in the world, I am not working due to problems I wont bore you with, so for the past five years I have been studying photography, I have learned a lot in my studies and am now putting it to good use, I bought a Cannon digital SLR and a good selection of lens, I bought a manfrotto Magic arm and i clamp it on to my wheel chair to help me stabilize my camera, I also have a good tripod which i find invaluably, I love photography, it gives me a great lease of life,I was feeling very low and Photography has lifted my spirits and gave me a good reason to keep motivated, I found it very hard going from been unbelievably busy at the plastering, to doing nothing with my time when I came home from the rehab in Dunlaoire, anyway I am busy now out and about in my jeep, I have hand controls to help me drive and an automatic gearbox,It is really brilliant to be back driving again to, I can go out to take some landscape shots most days when I am feeling OK, anyway I will sign out now hope to meet you all and keep up the good work,fellow photographers, kind regards Brian Geoghegan, PS feel free to contact me through this site,
It’s fantastic to see people continuing to discover a passion in photography – with the abundance of image-taking devices today, finding your own magic and viewpoints is priceless!
