Hi all, Matthew is the name! I jnow any of you from elsewhere but for those of you who dont, well, HI! Im almost 19 and im a college student in NUIG and im studying the Arts. Ive always been interested in photography from a young age thanks to my father! Im also a keen astronomer nd have been for about 4 years now.
I love snapping pics of birds and am interested in macro photogrphy although i dont hae the proper kit for it!
I own a canon 300D with 2 lenses, 100mm-300mm sigma lens and an 18mm-55mm canon lens! Also an Lx90 8" SCT and many accessories aswell as a skylux 70mm refractor!
I look forwrd to getting to know you all and see your posts!
All the best,
Matthew Cahill

Hi Matthew, great to see you on here to. This is turning out to be a great group of people in the one place.
I agree with Paul, you have some nice gear. I always fancied one of those LX90s.
