Photography

Hi All

Is there any members in here interested in photography?? I have CP and needed something new to keep me occupied, so I opted for a costly hobby known as photography.

I have a Canon EOS 350d and have just bought a new lense.

To accompany my new hobby I was looking for others who do photography on other websites and couldn't find a site that other people with disabilities use, so proceeded to setup my own called DAB Photography Online ( www.dab-photographyonline.co.uk ).

The site is for everyone as I strongly believe that we are one and we can learn from one another.

I'd be interested to chat with others who share this interest and hope to learn more from you. Please check out my site and join.

Suzan, you are to modest. Those pictures of yourself you sent me were absolutely great. I really like your use of silk and leather, u are so bad!! lol Sorry Suzan, I just couldn't resist. It's great to have hobby's. Good luck with it, and yes, photography is and expensive venture, but the end product pictures can be priceless. You should post a few of them sometime. Talk later, MArk

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GIMP
The GNU Image Manipulation Program, or GIMP, is a raster graphics editor used to process digital graphics and photographs. Typical uses include creating graphics and logos, resizing and cropping photos, altering colors, combining multiple images, removing unwanted image features, and converting between different image formats.[2] GIMP can also be used to create basic animated images in GIF format. It is often used as a free software replacement for Adobe Photoshop, the most widely used bitmap editor in the printing and graphics industries; however, it is not designed to be a Photoshop clone.[3] The project's mascot is named Wilber.

The project was started in 1995 by Spencer Kimball and Peter Mattis and is now maintained by a group of volunteers under the auspices of the GNU Project.[4] Available under the terms of the GNU General Public License, GIMP is free software.
