Dr.Grump's site

Hello
I am Dr.Grump. I live in Devon, United Kingdom. I go around taking photos of the Devon countryside, and the Devon coastline.
My Story
Unfortunately, when I was a teenager, I was abused by a secondary school teacher, and since then I had the Covid era to contend with, which kind of started to make me sit on my ass all the time, feeling sad and lonely. But recently I been trying to put in structure in my life, and that is one of the reasons why this website was born. Also I recently been trying to work on occupying my self since my horrible times, which has been pretty hard, that why I been trying to set my self a timetable on my phone, which kind of helped me flow with my life. I got interests in photography, and cinematography. I also enjoy taking apart technological devices, for example I disassembled an old DSLR camera, and I took apart a petrol chainsaw, and a petrol mower. Recently, my dad and I, was restoring another petrol mower that we both bought from a local rubbish tip, and I managed to get it back to working order. Also recently, I bought my self a new "second hand" professional digital video camera, which uses "DSLR" lenses. I also bought a second hand "shotgun" microphone to go with my video camera. I also recently done a cinematography experiment where I pointed a super 8 camera at a laptop monitor to expose a piece of digital video footage to super 8 film, which I then got developed. I also enjoy walking in nature, imagining what the world was like before the days of the internet. I also like looking out to sea partially because it kind of makes me imagine the magical olden nautical times. I also sometimes have fun experimenting with building camp stoves and stuff like that, and I enjoy doing wood fires. I also have interests in telecommunications such as morse code for example, for example, I built a apparatus that allows you to transmit audio signals via infrared beam, which is then picked up by a infrared sensor hooked up to loud speaker. I also been doing sketchings from some of my photos before, for example, I drawn a sketching of Bayard's Cove from a photo of mine. I also recently been doing film based photography, and developing my own camera films by my self, rather than letting a third party do it.
