Another Melbourne-ite in the mix

Luminosity · May 7, 2004

Hiya good people

,
Been snoopin around in here for the past week or so... was feelin rather unsociable and peeping tom -like so here I am introducing myself :wink:

In a nutshell ? I'ma chica born and bred in Melbourne , Australia. I'm wishing to learn everything I can about photography ( literally starting from sweet-nada knowledge about it ).I'm also a writer.

Just bought my first camera , a Minolta SLR , and I'm still navigating my way around it ( I'm brand spankin new to this world of photography :? ).
I LURVE black & white/sepia photography in particular.

Hmmm I'm actually struggling to find anything to say.Thats outta character :lol:

.

Anyway you all seem cool. Love a lot of the stuff I've seen on here so far!

Welcome to the forum Tina.

I am in the same boat. New to photography, new to the forum, but was made to feel right at home. You will find a very friendly and knowledgeable group here

Hiya Dweller

Thanks ! How long have you been involved ( for want of a better term lol ) in photography ?
There seems SO much to learn that , to a novice , its almost overwhelming ... but thats what is so attractive about it , at the same time
