Default First Post - Trip to Niagara

Hi Guys,

I've been following DPS for a long time and I guess now is the time to share some of my clicks. I just upgraded from a Fujifilm P&S to a Nikon D40 Kit. This is my first DSLR and these pics are some of my first with this camera.

Visited Niagara for the holiday weekend and I thought I will share a few pics with you guys. I hope you like them.
