G’day from Oz, Dinkums

Nah, just kiddin’.
Firstly, ta muchly to Lorraine for pointing this place out over on CreativeIreland.com.
It’s great to finally see a decent Irish photography forum…not that I ever looked that hard.Started out as a commercial photographer many many years ago, but switched to design when Potatoshop came along and have been pushing pixels ever since. First camera was a Canon AE1, manual with a needle stylee meter and I loved it to bits. Moved onto medium format with the Bronica 645, large format with a Sinar 5×4 and a few Bowens studio lights which scared the pants off me the first time I had to use that lot on a job. Been about 10 years since I’ve taken a snap in anger, always meant to get back into it as a hobby but life kinda got in the way. Only really got the urge to go at it again when the brother set up http://www.photofortnight.com, only real problem then was I had no camera other than a Nikon F4 which has so many buttons the sun would go down before I’d get it started up; makes a nice paperweight though. Anyways, bought myself a Fuji s9500 a coupla weeks back to dip my toe in the water so we’ll see how it goes.

Welcome, so you are the man to answer ALL of the photoshop questions then
Mick451ParticipantWell, maybe not ALL, but I’ll do my best to help out where I can.
I still use Photoshop 7, so any CS specific questions I might not be able to answer.
That said, the core tools I use haven’t changed much since v2.5, with the exception of layers in v3.shrapnelMemberMoyaParticipantLoGillParticipant:D You’re welcome Mick..
Hope you enjoy it – Love the website by the way
