When you’re done can you come and do mine, roses really need deadheading and every time I’m free to do it, it’s raining

Photography had become a lost pleasure, loss of right handedness made toting a camera problematic.
Being the old Luddite that I have always been is being eroded by necessity. Due to stroke an electric automatic car and a smart phone have become a necessary next step as I get used to my new world.
I can now shout, ‘hey google, take photo’ and my phone will obligingly snap the picture almost completely hands free.
I was a research technician in the Kodak research laboratories in the sixties, but never had a vision of what photography could become.
Keep on keepin’ on
grab those images

I to love photos though had to get rid of my Fuji x100f post stroke as I couldn’t operate it one handed the iso dials where far to small and the focus ring to fiddly… I still have a Olympus em5 mft camera and though not the long (300mm) lens I used to use for insects and birding, I did start some astrophotography with my pixel… living in between 2 seaside towns and a country park out front and back the light pollution isn’t so bad I can’t get some good night shots… though I do love repairing and colourising old photos I did that on the wards at Eastbourne DGH while recovering, I use a 2015 first gen. iPad Pro 12.9. plus the iPad version of affinity photo… it’s the top end of the weight I can manage… 700 grams without the keyboard…

Enjoyed Photography prior too having had two strokes, still enjoy the hobby especially using my Olympus OMD cameras and various Olympus lenses. Like yourself also have Affinity Photo 2 and just downloaded V 2.6.0. The walking to various photographic sites helps, and taking the photos and the post processing work aids my hand and finger dexterity.

thank you, you’re so kind, I do just love colours and was quite upset when one of the consultants looked at my photos and those I’ve coloureised pointing out that I might never see colours the same again which was very disheartening… I’m not sure it’s true as I don’t recall how they looked before
i tend to think what I don’t know, I don’t know but I do know is I still love colours even if they are somewho diffent… this is a before and after of my father (passport sized) from around 1950 and probably took a day to colourise.
