Hi Alexia,

Welcome to the CiC forums from me.

At 6 word's that's probably a record for the shortest intro post

You don't get off that lightly though - we'll be hoping for some questions and images from you - and remember; we know where you live

Seriously, welcome,

Hi my name is Brian and I'm a newbie with a Canon T1i, the kit lens and a 55-250mm. I'm a macro kind of guy (I really enjoy very close up work with insects, flowers, animals etc.) and also need to shot inside a lot without a flash. So I'm trying to narrow down my first lens purchase. I'm thinking a 2.8 of some kind. I don't mind 3rd party lenses any suggestions?

If you are a new member, it would be great if you could introduce yourself here, and say a few words about yourself.

hi all members
I start photography when i was child (six years old) my camera was a birthday gift. I took a picture and my parents told me it's not good then i thought that i wont be able to take beautiful pics. after 10 years i feel that pic is very beautiful and i decided to learn photography so i did not have enough money to buy negative so i borrow some money for a 120 negative. then i took 12 picture and learn photography. this is my story. thank you.

Hello from Willimantic, Ct, here in the USA. Willimantic is a small ex-factory town in the Northeastern corner of the state. My name is George Gilbransen, and I have been interested in photography since my early teens. I have always used 35mm cameras other then when in school, when I my mother allowed me to use an old Kodak Folder that she owned. It had a light leak, which ruined more then one picture but I loved it. I currently shoot with a Nikon N80 with a Tamron 28/200 zoom. It's getting a little long in the tooth, like it's owner, but still produces pretty good images.

I ran across this site while looking up information on "Color Space" and have been in and out several times. The last time in I started digging around the site a little and discovered the Forums. And so here I am, hoping to avail myself of the photo expertise that's here, and perhaps post a couple of my images, and contribute to the discussions when I feel I can.

Hey everybody, the names Dan Patterson. I live as a nomad and I'm sick of writing about my tales and expressing them with others over a wooden table while endless pints are raised, cheered and guzzled down by the dozen. Thus I am turning to photography, I plan to purchase an introductory SLR, most likely an xxxD Cannon with a stationary lens in order to simply get use to the camera and an fine tuned understanding of camera angles - learn the basics before advancing to the master's I've always said.

I love to ride bikes short and long distances, I was educated in literature and political science and I like Florence + the Machine.

Hi, Gale! Welcome to the party - there are quite a few of us obsessed individuals and quite a few Canadians, too! You'll fit right in. Don't worry about rejection, here, either. There's only encouragement and constructive criticism to help you grow. Dive in!

Not sure if I'm doing this correctly. I am new to photography (but even newer to electronic bulletin boards) and would appreciate any feedback you are willing to give.
How do I get a picture associated with my name?

Hi EOP, if you go to Settings (right up the top next to Log Out) you can Edit Avatar (in the middle of the left hand column). You have two options. Unless you have images posted elswhere on the web you will probably want to use Option 2 to upload an image from your computer. Please note the maximum size limits - you will need to downsize your favourite image to meet the requirements before uploading.

It is also helpful if you include your real name in your Settings (it will show up under your member details on each post) and short details of your location as most members address each other by their real name rather than their member name.

Welcome to CiC and we look forward to your participation in the forums.
