Ah, that’s a shame. Still waiting for your photo.

Welcome back Steve.
Same here! Just logged in for old times sake :). Mark will remember me, I was one of the regulars here years ago. I must say I did learn from the critique etc. I made some cyber friends, but the rows and bullshit got to me a bit though. However, the reason IMO is that we grew out of the forum. A lot of us met back up on FB. The critique is gone but what harm. It must be ten years ago or more that I first joined this forum and I’ve since become a professional photographer and have a gallery in Wexford town…not bad for an apprenticeship on PI eh? :)
Nice to see you back Pat, I had a peruse of your site, excellent photos I also enjoyed the ones taken from the drone which surprised me as I normally don’t care much for shots from the air, perhaps you might do a short piece on your experience’s with drone photography.
Michael.Well done Pat on making the transition, these days I imagine it’s a very tough business to be in. There’s quite a few photographers gone Pro who started out on PI, a very distinguish list let it be said.

Thanks Michael and Dave,[ I remember the avatar names] I must also say that I’m not full time at it as I have a full time job. I opened the gallery two years ago next month after doing 4 years of successful exhibitions during the opera festival here in Wexford. I had been making enquiries about a premises and whatever way the ball hopped in my favour and one came up so we took the plunge. Basically I’m just selling my landscapes there, I take on the odd gig. It’s ticking over and there’s good times and bad times. I never lost the passion for photography and I still go out on all day shoots around the Country [mostly Wicklow] I took a friend under my wing about 4 years ago and he is very proficient now and would hold his own with anyone.
Looking back on the early years on here, I used to love getting out early in the morning, but it was equally as good here at night when I’d upload my images. It was great getting critiqued and giving it as well. I see by this tread that the forum is not very busy? Am I correct? I suppose as I said earlier, we grew out of it. Anyway, nice to drop in every now and again to refresh. I’ll put up a pic later if I can remember how to do it from photobucket.
PatGood to hear from your Pat :).
I’m amazed you remembered your password :D
