My name is John Broatch and I have been into Photography for a number of years now. Hopefully from my gallery you can see how I have improved. I started with a Minolta 7000i and then purchased an 8000i. I was getting ready to set up my dark room when I went to my Photographic shop to buy some B&W film to be told they do not stock it any more. This was the final straw that pushed me over the edge to move into digital photography. I now own a Nikon D80 and I am extremely impressed with it. I also seem to be taking more pictures as I am not waiting to use up the roll of film which is good. I also enjoy my motorbike, a Suzuki Bandit 1200, which I am on most days its very good for disappearing on to take pictures. Hope you enjoy my gallery.
