I work as a consultant to the Chemicals Industry in Sydney, Australia. I have long been interested in photography, and have a Nikon D300 (and D50). Lenses include a Sigma 18-50mm f2.8, a Sigma 100-300 f4, a Nikon 50mm f1.8, and a Tamron 90mm f2.8 for macro photography. Also a SB800 speedlight flash unit and a good quality tripod and quick release ballhead. Other interests include Cricket (I score for Sydney University Cricket Club), Soccer (support the mighty West Ham United), and most things scientific. I live in a 100 year old terrace house in inner Sydney with my family. http://claudius.smugmug.com/Family/Family/DAA7350/532305760_8wYTk-Ti.jpg http://claudius.smugmug.com/ 2009-07-04T15:29:39Z Copyright 2009, the copyright holder of each photograph.
