I am an 80 year-old Civil Engineer. I am still active in my company as a consultant and Director, on a three day week basis. I live in Cape Town South Africa. I got my first SLR camera, a Yashica when I was 21, my 21st birthday present. I graduated to a Nikon F, and have been a Nikon fan ever since., with F2. nikormat, and Nikonus underwater I spent 5 years sailing in the Indian ocean islands, the Atlantic and the Med. Taking both underwater and interest photos. I converted to digital about 15 years ago. I now have a Nikon D500, a D7000. I print my photographs using an Epson R3000.
My main interest is wild life and bird photography, especially Birds in Flight. I mainly use a Nikon 200/500mm Super Zoom. I have recently started to experiment with Macro.
I started with Elements 2 and now use Elements 2018 with the Elements + add-on.

Hi popcorn,
I joined a couple of days ago. Underwater photography seems really exciting! I started with Elements 8 and I'm still happy with version 12. Looking forward to seeing your photos.
Best regards,
Tony
