Looking back

This blog is moving toward an anniversary issue so the one post before will take a bit of an look back at the start of all of this. 

It wasn't that all of a sudden I decided "Hey let's go hiking and make a blog", much of that goes back into childhood and what I loved as a boy observing where we lived or when we went away to places no matter how hard it was at times.

That's a shadow Chris picture some seven months before the blog was established looking pretty much a cub scout taking a picture cos there was so much of that in me that it seemed to make sense to go with it and pick up on the Adventure of Life from where it had been parked.

I found it just felt right being and setting challenges to grow.

Trees always fascinated me and as the years moved on as did photographic technology when I'd use my trusty Minolta XD7 and X500 film cameras and marque lenses to using digital models, I learned to get the most out of them even if like this it was shot on a compact camera.
