Hello to all from antonoat(formerly wildoat)
« on: June 11, 2015, 21:50:11 »
I'm formerly wildoat from Nikongear(first edition/fotozones).
My real name is Tony Oaten.

Living in the county of Wiltshire in the UK, full time serious photographer, though not full time professional!
Extremely happy to be part of this new found forum, so nice to see many guys (and currently one very fine Gal Elsa) from the old days.

Life moves on and things change, here's to the future.

Welcome Tony,

Good to have you on board, still using the 400/2.8VR, aka my dream lens?

I don't do jealousy but that lens makes me pretty envious  ;)
Cheers,
Jan Anne

I've offered to look after it when Tony's away, but he never took me up on this :(

Thanks very much Jan Anne.
Lol, nah, got rid of that piece of junk, but I did replace it with the newer(E) version, I couldn't help myself  :)

You're very welcome Bob, I figured there were quite a few people I know who would appreciate this website.

Kind regards
