Framing up a landmark

As I make my way towards a landmark in this blogs history one important feature has always been images, sometimes sadly not always of quality I'd of liked given the vintage sources available.

It is also is entirely fitting this this blog notes that one thing I would of been awarded as a cub back then would of been my photography badge and that there is sufficient proof that the competence would be met by my own photographs on here. 

Photography as people who know another blog played apart in my life, something I learned as a boy in the era of film photography, getting serious with my Minolta X500 and XD7 camera bodies, marque lenses and accessories.

I also learned a bit from from my older brother who was a scout using his equipment as a young boy.

These days I use a combination of a Nikon D3500 digital single lens reflex with a few lenses and a Canon compact for the carried in coat pocket point and shoot pictures.

This life not least the scouting part of it has given me a lot especially since the Covid-19 Lockdown in March helping me as scouting has helped many boys (and girls) during period stay focused,make the most of the situation we are facing learn new things and do what we can waking a difference for the good.
