The Future of Photography

[Mick]

Please extend all invitations also to 'Gil'

eek, that brings back memories, it really does.

Hi Tim,  how's things (stupid question of the day) lol..  I knew you would turn up if I said you wouldn't, it's great to hear from you again.  This place is still trudging along, unfortunately it didn't take off quite as quick as your career did.   

Please stay in touch here, and have a great weekend yourself.

Ah, I see you did manage to log in after all!

Welcome back Tim or should I say Bootneck47. 

[Jediboy]

I remember Bootneck47.
Found his stunning car photos an inspiration.

[Paul Montgomery]

Indeed - I was always amazed by (and slightly jealous of) Tim's work.

Head across to photofocus.com there's an interview with Tim.

My claim to fame........I did some proof reading for Tim's first website.

[Reinardina]

Yes, he really made it.

My only claim to fame is, that I emailed him, and pointed to CC where old pals were reminiscing. He graciously put in an appearance.

Didn't he do some animal stuff as well. I seem to remember a photo of a gorilla that I thought was stunning.

Memories of Gil, ha, nightmares more like.

Memories of Gil, ha, nightmares more like.

Not to mention that "Stan " He used to rip into people as well with his racist and homophobic comments. They both kept Mick busy when he was the only mod over there

I'll have to fess up and say that Stan did make me spit my coffee out a few times.     I can't actually believe I was the only moderator on DCM, I was asked to look after the place one Christmas, and got lumbered with the lot. I would never do that again.

You did a good job Mick until they changed the management and dropped you in the poo. 

[Simple]

They were interesting times. DCM magazine was enormous in size, nearly an A3, Cameras we used were Minolta Dimage 5 and 7 and later the Canon 300d and Nikon D70. people went overboard on complaints about dust and that film was soo much better. I think it was a very interesting time to live in and be part of this change-over and of the revival of photography.

The Minolta RD3000 was my first DSLR camera and I still have it. My first Nikon was the D70 which I sold to someone for £10.

Thanks OB. I did what I could with the available tools given, but in reality behind the scenes the system was a complete mess. Plus if anything needed the slightest tweak the DCM team didn't know how to adjust it.  They had to pay a separate IT team a fortune to do each adjustment.  I mean just to turn something on, or off. 

Utterly ridiculous imo.

Their constant denial that things were wrong is what finished me.
