Greetings!

Hi All,
Thought I ought to say something about what I do, now I've started trying to help with IDs and so on! I'm a palaeontologist and natural history educator, currently based in London but trying to get out. Last January my partner and I got ourselves a decent camera (Nikon D80) with macro lens (Sigma 105) for our research, but I've since become hooked on the wildlife photography as well. I was invited over here by Asheleaf (cheers! ), whom I know from Flickr; over there I run a couple of groups aimed at photographing and identifying Heteroptera and Auchenorrhyncha, which I'm particularly partial to. I've also been hunting fungi less formally for years, so I know a little bit about them too... but I stress I'm not a specialist in any living groups at all!

There are a few familiar faces over here, but hi to the rest of you, and I hope to be around a good long while.

ATB
Joe

Re: Greetings!

Wow, lots of hellos! Consider them each individually reciprocated, and good to see you again too, nutmeg!

Definitely think I'm going to enjoy myself here... I'm already feeling more cheerful about an 'orrible gastric flu thing that's almost stopping going out mushroom hunting. Almost...
