[QUOTE="lightmuncher, post: 4666, member: 300"] I have been copying old images I had on the hallway walls in our last house. And one of them was of me. As strange as it sounds, it is the only one I can find, but it was taken back in the mid 1980's. That was the first time I went out with a group of walkers from work. I worked as an energy advisor for what was known back then, Southern Electric. Which became into one of the greedy companies we have now. However, there was a good group of people who invited me on my first long walks in Wales. I lived in Swindon and worked in Swindon, Wilts. We would meet anytime from 5.30 to 6am in the company car park, pile into two or three cars and head across to Wales to Brecon's, Black Mountain or the Black Mountains. Yes, they are two separate places. We did a climb to Pen Y Fan, the highest point in the Brecon's. After this first climb, and walk, I was hooked, ready for more. I used Topaz software to take out the silver particles and make it more digital. Not as successful as the Lake Trasimeno image, but its better than the old photo, which now needs chucking away. I will have to get a better one that is more up to date, but thought I would share memories of happiness. BEST OF ALL! NO MOBILE PHONES! You had to do real map reading work [ATTACH type="full" width="895px" alt="Me in the mid eighties Pen Y Fan Brecons.jpg"]1636[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
