Retired and decided to get into SLR photography as way too expensive when I was in my 20’s. Used cameras were cheap, Canon 1000D for 120 euros but decided to upgrade to 7D for 320 euros, seems a bargain to me.
Having fun looking for subjects, amazing how photography makes you look at the world. I now notice changing light, shadows etc.
Plenty of subjects here in rural France, old trees, insects landscapes.
