So, welcome to my new Blog! 'Through a wide angle lens' intends to encompass everything from mundane daily commentary, through reaction to political events around the world and holidays, and yes, photography. Most of the photos I put up will be my own, though I may use others that I particularly like from time to time, but I will let you know when I do this. I make no claim to be anything but an enthusiastic amateur photographer, and I use either a Nikon D3200 DSLR with a variety of lenses, or an HTC One Smartphone camera.

I have decided to confine my more opinionated comments to this Blog, and Twitter, and to give my Facebook friends some relief from my frequent rants, which do not always accord with the views of my readers!

Topics such as Donald Trump, Brexit, the plight of refugees and Christian faith will all mingle here in glorious abandon. You have been warned!
