    Hello everyone,
    My name is Ian, although many of my family and friends call me Grandadfatboy. I am getting on in life now and heading towards receiving my old age pension.

    Over the last several years my health has been extremely poor to say the least, but I'm on the mend and starting to get back into my photography. At the moment, my physical ability will not allow me to chase the landscapes I desire most to capture, but in the meantime I've been photographing the interiors of historic buildings, most recently York Minster.

    I look forward to getting involved, and probably asking some silly questions.

    All the best
    Ian

    I am looking forward to when you are to chase the landscapes that you like to photograph.

    I would love to see what you love to image.

    Welcome to the forum Ian, I am in a similar boat due to medical issues, but keep going as a healthy attitude is as important as being healthy and a question not asked is the only silly question.
