Hello everyone, my name is Bernard Bosmans. I've been around for a few years (86yrs) and keep myself fit and alert with a daily walk and often with a camera in hand. My passion for photography started in the early fifties with my first film camera an Agfa Clack. Thanks for your visit and enjoy my galleries with a great variety of images. Appreciate your critique and comments.

Guestbook for All Photographs
THE INQUISITIVE EYE... Photography by Fay Stout
Thanks you so much for your lovely message on my food photography!
I have enjoyed looking at your street photography as that is an area that I would like to delve into more and you have caught some great moments! Some of my favorites included street art.
Your roses are exquisite... have always loved roses caught at their peak of perfection and you have done it over and over again.
And what's not to love about babies and pugs? I have a little black pug and an elderly fawn pug and three grandbabies.
Bravo to you for your photography and for the fact that you are continuing to shoot! That's what I am talking about. A hobby to take you through your lifetime. It is a passion like no other and maybe that's why I treasure the friendships with photographers... they are able to live in the moment and I can share that moment through photography.
Happy shooting! Fay

G'day B, just having a snoop, love the Pelican ! You'll have to get down to Hastings or San Remo and try them in large mobs. Like rust ? Broken Hill, mate. So much big old gear waiting for you.
