Hi Darren (and the rest of the group),
My name is Paul, and I am getting back into photography after a long layoff from it (since my highschool years- I graduated in 1978). I just bought a Canon 40D, with a Sigma 18-50 f2.8 macro and a Canon 55-250 zoom lens. I have to admit that i am getting hooked on taking photos, but have somewhat limited time as I teach grade 7 full time. I live in British Columbia, Canada (in the lower mainland area), and because of this I lean toward landscape photography at this point, but would like to venture into more creative shooting (subject matter and composition). I have always been into visual expression from a very young age, and also work in digital video (I have a Canon XH A1 camcorder and work in Final Cut Pro). One of my biggest problems is that I have too many creative outlets, but that is my issue. I look forward to getting feedback from others about any aspects of photography (I am keen to learn about this whole DSLR format, including its limitations). So, if you come across one of my posts, please let me know how I am doing, and do not worry, I take criticism very well (in a positive light : )
