Hello Hernan and welcome to CiC. Glad you've decided to join. Lots of interesting stuff in your galleries.

You've maybe seen that most of us tend to use our real names on here. It makes communication more friendly and CiC is that sort of site. Did you know you can go to Edit Profile and enter your proper name under 'Real Name'. Then it will appear underneath your Username in all your posts. You can also put in your location and, under 'Signature' you could put in the address for your galleries.

[satomi]

Hello all,
My name is Satomi, and I currently reside in Boston, MA. After several years of seriously considering my transition from a point and shoot to a DSLR, I finally bought my first Canon EOS RebelXS (used) about 3 months ago. My next plan is to join a class somewhere, but so far I am slowly learning with much help from the tutorial pages on this website. I recently discovered the forum section, and am hoping to become more active in an effort to learn even more, and also to motivate myself, since I am an absolute beginner.

I am primarily interested in architectural photography, although I've been doing some landscape as well. Hoping to get a wide range of comments and criticisms from many, and I look forward to meeting everyone here

My name is Satomi, ... I recently discovered the forum section, and am hoping to become more active in an effort to learn even more, and also to motivate myself, since I am an absolute beginner.

And I'm very glad you did. Welcome to CiC, Satomi.

Hopefully you've already seen from the tutorials and the forum, that CiC is very much about learning and about offering support and advice to help people develop their knowledge and skills. I know that most of my learning took place by just reading what was being posted here and by asking questions, and then going out and practicing, practicing, practicing ... and then practicing some more.

So please do ask your questions and join in discussions.

Hi
I'm Chris - I have been visiting the CiC site for a while now and reading many of the tutorials, eventually while ill and laid up in bed over the weekend I decided to register. I'm not familiar with using Forums or BB's so forgive any 'faux pas' I may make, they will be made out of ignorance not arrogance.
I run occasional workshops and 1 to 1 tuition on photography so I may be able to offer help, support and advice to many on the site that require it. In return I'm sure there are many members who can also offer me help and advice, especially on the processing side of things.

I have uploaded a small selection of my work into a couple of Albums (I hope I have done it right), so take a look.

Regards

Chris

Apologies for missing your posts earlier in the day. A very warm welcome to each of you and I hope CiC becomes a main photography site for you.

Whether you are in the early stages of your development in photography or, as Chris writes, are in a position to perhaps help and advise others, I hope CiC meets your requirements. Certainly you will find friendly people always ready and willing to become involved in discussions and ready to answer questions.

Hello,

Name is Ken and I'm currently living in Wales, UK. I've read a few of the tutorials on the site in the past and like a few others, have decided to take the plunge and join up. Currently use a Canon 300D that's a bit past its sell-by date now but seriously thinking about a new Canon 5D. Started out with a Zenith 35mm and still learning....

Welcome. Once we tone down the font size a bit we'll be able to read through longer messages!

And don't tell yourself that you're not very good. You are. You're as good as you're developmental stage in photography allows you to be. It's all about learning and CiC is, I hope, one resource that can help you with that.

[Donald]

Name is Ken and I'm currently living in Wales, UK.

What's with the sudden rash of Welsh members? Is there a membership promotion going on down there?

Ken - hello and a warm welcome. Great to have you on board.

As you may already have seen, CiC is a community of like-minded people who aren't pretentious or precious about being 'better' than anyone else. It's a place for discussion and an exchange of ideas. So, please do join in.

Hi everyone, my name is Kumar and I am currently living in Hong Kong. I currently have a 450D but thinking of upgrading to a better SLR. What are you suggestions (has to be a canon)?

Good idea to put an introductory post here as well. So, again, hello! I see you've already got into joining discussions, which is great.

With regard to you question, I would suggest that you re-post it as new thread in the 'Digital Cameras & Equipment' section of the forum. It is likely that more people will then see your question.
