Hello from the UK
Hello, Just thought I would introduce myself as I have just joined the forum.
I live in the UK and have just started in photography. I currently work as a theatre nurse at my local hospital and have done for 22 years, I'm married with a 3yr old little boy. I'm just starting out in photography and have absolutely no idea what i'm doing!! have a Nikon D80 with 17-55mm and 55-200mm lens, tripod, various filters,a telephoto and wide angle attachment lenses (i think?) bought my camera as a package deal from the states. My hubby's nephew has just completed his photography and film degree and is staying on to do his Masters at university and I have several friends whom are photographers - some professional some amateur so a little help there I guess  I'm just in the process of watching the 2 hr DVD which came with the camera and have bought a step by step guide book for the D80. Will need all the help I can get i'm afraid in mastering this art form, would love to take it up professionaly in a couple of years as a little sideline if i'm good enough andd maybe even jack out of the health service for good!

These are nice! Once you do learn all the technical details, I'm sure you'll have a lot more fun doing these kinds of shots. Once again, welcome aboard!
