Life Thru A Lens: Photographer/Artist, Colin Tennant

I am 29 years old and live in Glasgow. I will be working in Ellon on the "Life Thru A Lens" project along with Mark Mitchell and Nicola Twine. Mark's job title is a community planning officer and Nicola's job title is community learning and development officer. Colin Tennant came for an interview for this project and two members were on the interview panel. I am very much looking forward to working with the different community groups in Ellon. I am also looking forward to helping the Ellon Editors develop their photography skills. Addressing barriers that individuals may face in their community.

About me

I enjoy being at the resource centre because I have left school. I am a whizz at I.T. because I am a fast typist. I like using publisher and I like using the internet. I am interested in Formula 1 cars. My favourite racing drivers are Lewis Hamilton (McLaren), Michael Schumacher (Ferrari).

At the resource centre, I go to the gardening place on Monday, sorting plants into different pots, digging, weeding, watering, etc. My pets are Paddy (brown and white dog) and Murphy (black and white dog). I do various activities e.g. swimming, cycling, horse riding on Thursday evening at Tweeddale, near Inverurie, dancing on Friday or Saturday night (depending if there is a party or disco taking place), etc.
