Hello everyone! I'm Eduardo, I live in Mexico City, I'm 22 and I am studying Industrial Design.

When i was kid I remember I used to take pictures with a 110 film camera my parents gave to me. After that, I always liked taking pictures, but only when traveling and with point and shoot's, not putting attention in any technical aspects, until a year ago, when I got a Nikon dSLR and since then I've been trying to learn as much as I can about it. Now I can say I love it, It's my passion. So well I hope I can learn a lot here, share with all of you and help with what I can.

Hello!
My name is Sara and I'm from Brisbane, Australia.
I have just bought my first SLR camera on the weekend. I have always been interested in photography but have only just started learning more about it since getting the new camera, before that I just had a little cannon p&s. This site has been really helpful at introducing me to the different aspects of photography and I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you!

Hi my name is Dorian. I live in Grenoble, France right but I lived in Denver for oh 10 or so years, anyway I have always loved photography. I have a E-500 for a bit but I traded it in for a Nikon D200. I use a AF-S nikkor 70-300mm and AF-S nikkor 18-135mm, with a sb-800. My dream is to be good enough to work for National Geographic so i'm here to learn. please tell me what you think of my pics on www.picasaweb.google.com/xthefrenchmanx. i tend to post all of my pics.
thanks for everything
Dorian

Hi Saralonde. I got a Nikon D40, still learning how to use is but it's so much fun!!

xthefrenchmanx Hi Dorian! Working for National Geographic is a big goal. Hope we can help you attain your dream! I love your mountain shot (Jul 23) on Picasa. Enjoy your D200 and the time you have left in France before you move.

Hello,
I am a new member here, my name is Tareq, and i am from United Arab Emirates, live in Ajman city, so Arabic is my first language not English.
I have been into Photography about 2 years ago or at the ends of 2005, i signed into many many photography websites and i try my best to have something good but my opportunity is very low.
I found this site from another photography website so i said i have to give a look and try it.

I hope i can learn and get information and share here as i do on many another sites, but really i am not concentrating on any sites and everyday i see great amazing photos all over the world on the net i stay just blown away and i try to think to have something different winner shots but this is impossible in my case, all my opportunity in photography is when i travel once every year.


Best Regards,
Tareq Alhamrani
