I am a dashingly virile 58 year old granddad who didn’t take a serious photograph until 2009. Since then I’ve become somewhat obsessed and photograph nearly every day, always carrying one of my small four-thirds cameras with me as I walk my boxer dog for miles. Apart from learning basic technical rudiments I’ve deliberately avoided reading photography manuals or magazines in order to hopefully develop my own ‘signature’ in a pragmatic way. I have had some encouraging success in having a few of my photos printed in newspapers and Popular Photography magazine. Always learning and striving for the special shot. : - ) My cameras are: PANASONIC G1,PANASONIC G.F.1 and OLYMPUS – E.P1. “ ~ Kenneth Barker
