Well, cameras aren't the only things to shoot with ...



Taken by by my son who lives in Colorado Springs where they have a slightly more enlightened attitude to shooting than we do in the UK - with his $30 "point-and-shoot" digicam from Wal-Mart. The SIG P220 cost rather more, he tells me.

It is me and no trick photography there.

Well, when I'm not taking pics I'm in the gym. I occasionally compete in both powerlifting and strongman. I've been a gymrat for 20 years. A photographer for just over 2.

Impossible Attila, I still have most of my muscles from the time I played football, and I am not training anymore since 15 years.
One of my trainers once said to me "the muscles are like elephants: they have a long memory".

I feel for you Attila. I hope you can return to it someday.

Fortunately my back is good and I plan to keep it that way.
