good morning from Vienna
« on: June 15, 2015, 08:32:58 »
hello all,

my name is martin Prager, I have been a member of Nikongear, then Fotozones life Member but only listening (well, reading) and not writing, maybe I can start to contribute a little myself now I see all the fine names again.

I am an ICT consultant, just moving into retirement, love photography having learned something from my late South African uncle. Traveling, people, places, nudes and whatever comes in front of my Nikon stuff.

And my wife has now - after many years of being very patient with me and photography - has started this game too and now I have a D800 and a few lenses less in my bag. Never mind, she carries her own stuff  ;).

My next photography outing is in Pörtschach, Carinthia (Austria) end of June, the World Body Painting festival, let me see what I can com up with. And then end of July a cruise with a much too large ship to Savlbard an Nofoten, but only a day there each so I will surely be coming aigain

Great to see the original idea of Nicongear resurface, thanks Bjørn!

Martin
