Newb Neil with a Nikon

[slowstr8fastturns]

Hello , my name is Neil, I've been lurking this forum for a little bit.And while my camera battery charges ,I figure I might as well join.

Been shooting with a D40 for a while,but just recently "really" getting into photography.My favorite subject to shoot is urban art/graffiti .

The first of this year I started a 365 Photo project ,and have been plugging away everyday.

Heres some photos of mine:
1)Top of the Golden Gate Bridge(when I first got my D40)

2)On top of the GG bridge for the second time(way too much fog)

3)I love the feel of this photo

4)

5)

6)Ill try not to flood this with Graffiti shots but in this photo are three top writers in the bay area

7)I will end on this one ,This photo took alot of planning.I had to run 100 yards+ up a highway on-ramp to take this picture.

Heres my flickr

I'm not that big on Grafiti, but I do like when things are symmetrical. Plus with my background in wedding photography, I can see doing something funky with bride&groom and images #1&4. HOWEVER, I recently met a bride-to-be who wants, on her wedding day, to be photographed around junk yard, graffiti wall and various other metal buildings and structures. Although it isn't my personal preference, ppl don't necessarily pay me for my preference but pay me to deliver them the product that they will like. So we'll see how that job turns out...
Otherwise, welcome to TPF, post Qs, participate in discussion and be active.
Welcome!

2, 3, 4 show you really have an interesting eye. Did you PP #1? I find that shiny water messes with my exposure a lot. Yours came out nicely .

#1 was shot when I knew nothing about photography. I'm hoping to go back up there with a lot more knowledge and techniques.
