Dennis Smith - crunch61's photos with the keyword: Countryside

Hi one and all. I've been away from here for longer than I had hoped. I had an attack of my MS a while back, and to be honest, it hasn't really got any better for ages now. We went on holiday for a week up to Yorkshire, but just before we went there I managed to lose all the feeling in my legs again due to having a crap time with Multiple Sclerosis at the moment. Still, despite not having fun with my non functioning body, it seems that my shooting finger is still working and I managed to get some decent shots up there!

I'd realized that my photography had more or less stagnated when I was using the Canon, and it is really nice coming back to Nikon again. All the buttons and dials are where I want them, and the camera doesn't argue with me when I ask it to do something dumb!

Well, it seems I'm just about back to something like normal life after my recent episode of MS. Anyone who knows me well will know that I've used Nikon for years. I sold all of my Nikon equipment last year, the weight of it made carrying it far from fun, and that was mainly down to my MS. Anyway I decided I needed a lighter camera after my D2Xs and went for the Canon 60D. I never really got along with that camera so what I did was sell all of the Canon gear I had - and went back to Nikon again, and now I have a nice, new Nikon D600! It's like coming home again :-)

As you can tell I haven't been around much for a while. This heat affects my MS and I haven't really taken any new photos for a while, so this is one from Northumberland back in May...
