Hi Kathy

The shot looks alright. It looks like you have got the right camera.
I am trying to figure out if you were on top the tree or just leaning against it.

Actually, the photo is my daughter, and she was on top of the tree which was slightly above me. This picture of my two girls is at the same tree and will give you the perspective. And thanks for the comment!

Well, Dean, I certainly hope that CiC is the place that can help you develop your knowledge and skills. As well as the tutorials, there are plenty people on here who can give you the sort of information and advice that you'd have to pay big bucks for if you signed up onto a course.

So, it's good to have you on board.

Give that man/woman (?) bonus points for having the right attitude to life!

Welcome to CiC. If you go to Edit profile, you can put your proper name under 'Real Name' and then we'll all know who we're talking to. You'll have already seen that we tend to go with proper names on here - it's that sort of site.

Great to have you on board and please feel able to post up your images for comment and/or ask lots of photography related questions.

My name is Robert W. Schaefer Jr., and I live in Chicago, Il. USA. I've been interested in photography most of my life, but only took it up as a serious hobby with the advent of digital photography.
I shoot only when I have a fairly good idea of the type of image I want to create, and the environment presents itself. I print my photos and a number of them are hanging in homes and offices; I don't charge wanting to preserve my amateur status.
All comments are welcome.

All right, here I am. Today I decided to jump any obstacle and became a capturer of color. I recently bought a nikon D3100 to learn Digital photography. Guys I have a lot to catch up, I''ll promise do my best and forget the rest to shoot nice pics, but if anybody can help improving I'll so glad to heard their critics. I speak spanish as well.

Thanks in advance

P.D: Below an amateur pictures though; I love sunset and sunrises....

Good for you ... and welcome to CiC.

You don't tell us your name or where in the world you are. You can edit your profile and insert both pieces of detail so that they will appear in the side bar with all your posts.

CiC is certainly a forum that will help you develop your knowledge and skills and others here will be happy to help you with that.

Hello,
New to this site. I stumble upon it by accident. I am enjoying looking at all of the pictures. I guess my photography often imitates others. I like to look at shots to get ideas for my own photography. Hopefully soon I will be posting my own shots.

All of our photographs have a commonality to them. We all walk the same paths as others, yet when we walk, we are looking for "that" photograph while everyone else is looking not to trip.

Hi there, I'm Chrissy and stumbled upon this site long before I was using an SLR - I loved looking at the photographs but never dreamed I'd be using Canon 1D's for sports photography!! I'm now venturing into other areas, but this whole photography subject is endless and there are times when my ever-patient other half can't answer my queries....
This site is brilliant and I'm looking forward to spending some time searching for tips and will enjoy being part of this community!
See you soon.
Chrissy

Hi Chrissy,

Welcome to the CiC forums from me, great to have you join us.

~ but never dreamed I'd be using Canon 1D's for sports photography!!

Do tell more, please.

Don't be shy, ask questions, as many as it takes, the dumb questions are the ones you don't ask

Cheers,

Hey everyone. I am Matt from Connecticut, USA. Picked up a lightly used Nikon D60 and started reading the tutorials which led me to the forum. After a few years of using a DSLR at work to take pictures of furniture(which is so much more boring than it sounds), I bought my own so I can enjoy taking pictures by shooting what I want to.

Hello Matt and welcome to CiC.

Yep, I reckon it's much more fun shooting what you want, rather than what you have to!

CiC's focus is very much on helping people to learn. So, I hope you find it a useful resource in developing your knowledge and skills.
