Hi, I joined Wakefield Camera Club earlier in 2011. I knew that I liked taking photographs and was looking to do something different. So, I turned up at the club one evening with my compact camera, with the intention of buying a decent camera in the future. I remember being questioned by all these DSLR users as to what my favourite subject was and I didn’t have one – I just like taking photographs of anything.
Members of the club were very helpful and in the end, I took the easy option and got a Canon PowerShot G12. I never wanted to get into all the technicalities of photography, but it does become addictive and I now find that I am starting to shoot in RAW and selecting different options instead of the Auto button!
Whilst I am definitely a novice, I have found that I do look at everyday scenes and events in a different way. I do want to learn more and find that the photography presented at the club is an inspiration and I can always find someone to talk to for advice.
