Introduce Yourself

[jopeek]

Hi all, I've always been interested in photography since my dad has always been into it. He even had his own dark room some years ago and now he just gave me his Nikon D70s, no doubt with the alternative motive to get himself a new camera, and I can't wait to learn more and improve as a photographer.

Hope to learn lots here at DPS and to participate in assignments and such.

Cheers

Hi, my name is Kiall and I live in Queensland, Australia. I have been interested in photography for a few years now, but have only recently decided to take it a lot more seriously.

I joined DPS so that I may learn how to advance my skills to a point where I can proudly display my work and, who knows, maybe even earn a little money.

Right now I have a Nikon D70. My lenses are the 18-70mm kit lens, a nikkor 70-300mm and Nikon 50mm f/1.8.

I am a married father of 2 brilliant boys, the eldest is 5, his brother is 2 - both are willing models and are insanely photogenic. They are usually my inspiration, though I enjoy branching out and trying my hand at an assortment of genres.

Hopefully all the brilliant photographic minds in here will be able to assist my development, and maybe I can even give a little back to those who follow me.

And I've always love photography, although my technical knowledge was "auto mode" shoot shoot shoot

recently I bought a digital point and shoot ( Sony DSC - s930 ) and I decided to try and learn some tricks and techniques, and understanding the other modes and functions. (when I master this I hope to buy DSLR)

I have already learned a few things from this forum's tips and tutorials and I hope to learn more.

I'll share some of my photos soon...

Hello Everyone!!

This is Nav from the beautiful n green Ireland. Photography is like an expression of myself. I absolutely love DPS and anything I have learnt about Photography is because of DPS. Thank you Darren for such a wonderful resource, for encouraging people like me to take up photography seriously.

I still have loads to learn and hopefully one day, my photos will be posted to DPS for others to see and get inspired from. I use Nikon D90, 18-105 mm, 50 mm f.14 and 70-300 mm lens

Cheers...

My name is Colette.
I have always loved taking photos but until recently just had fairly simple automatic camers, but then hubby bought me a new one.

I make glass beads (lampwork) and he bought me the camera so I can take publishable photos of my beads. But I am finding it bewildering to use, and get decent shots, so I came looking for a site I can learn more from - and I found this one!

I have a finepix s6500fd.
