About Me
Welcome to my blog, I’m Philip, a novice to amateur photography who loves travel and practice landscape photography. I have just returned to photography after many years and am joining the digital revolution. Even though I was well versed in the principles of photography, I have had to re-learn a great deal about the techniques. That, and the fact that I was only okay at taking a picture, but with the digital revolution that process of learning is thousands of times faster.
