Hi from Brownhills

Hi Everyone,

I go by the Name Dr_Jimmy, it's a Nick Name I have been given from a good friend of mine that for some reason has stuck, we are both big "Who" Fans and the Name comes from the Who's Quadraphenia Album.

My Correct Name, is James, but I prefer to be Called "Jim"

I am Based In Brownhills West, which is an old Mining Area of Walsall, in the West Midlands, the family have been here for well over four generations

I am New to Macro Photography, but not to General Photography, I used to be a "Dark Room" worker before I had an accident at work, causing me to pack up photography for a number of years, I have only been Digital for around 12 Months now.

But so far, I have found people very friendly and the Constructive Critisism I have received so far is very precise and detailed which is what I require, so please keep it coming.

Re: Hi from Brownhills

Hi Dr Jimmy, I wont be able to give you any help or constructive critisism but I tell you one thing, if my photos were as good as your orange tip and flower I saw on the photographic forum the other day , I would be a very happy goosey! I couldn't see anything wrong with your matchsticks either
I hope you get all the advice you want and no doubt our paths will cross - welcome to WAB and see you around

Re: Hi from Brownhills

Thanks for the Warm Welcome.

I do hope to upload some decent images as time goes by, and to hopefully improve the content of the images, as they say "Practice Makes Better"

Re: Hi from Brownhills

I see "FungiJohn" understands where my Nick Name has come from, must admit seeing that line here, has put a smile on my face.

Thank you

Hi DR Jim - wasnt he a bear ? or am i getting confused ( the only other DR Jimmy I can think of was DR Jaimeson who was big in turn of the century Rhodesia and inspired the invasion of Boer Transvaal - I presume its not that one )

Re: Hi from Brownhills

Hi Dr Jimmy and a big welcome from another fan of the 'orrible 'Oo!

I very nearly signed up here as "Helpless Dancer" but in the end decided to stick with the boring old username that I use on other sites.
