I am an UIsterman - British, yet proud to be Irish. My Norwegian wife and I live in Bangor, Northern Ireland. Since retiring as a Government Official, I have been able to spend more time attempting to improve my picture-making skills. My life-long passion for photography was also re-ignited by the advent of digital cameras. Woophy membership, enabling me to look at pictures from all over the world, while mine are viewed by people who share my interest, has been fantastic ! Attending a Woophy Day ( 30 August 2008 ) was icing on the cake.
