I purchased a small digicam prior to a business trip to Thailand with the aim of recording some fabulous sights. The purchase was made about two months before the trip and as I live within walking distance to an airport I decided to photograph some of the planes. I knew nothing about photography or planes at that point. Having really liked my new found photography results on return from Thailand I decided to invest in DSLR technology and thoughout the summer of 2003 became a mad thing of aviation photography. From 1998 to 2002 I did an Honours degree with the OU so all weekends and evenings were spend studying and when finished photography provided new freedom. Also in 2003 I hired a light aircraft to do some aerial photography but the pilot was more interested in teaching me to fly the thing (theres another passion).
In summary, I became interested in photography because I had lots of time after completing my degree and a business trip to Thailand almost forced me to purchase a camera. I never looked back....
