G'day from Australia!

[ShutterHappy]

Hey guys... It's Justin here from Australia. I'm a total newbie at photography but enjoy trying to get a nice photo. Up until now I've been an "auto select - point and shoot" photographer (if you can even call it that), but I'm here to hopefully learn a lot from other The Photo Forum members.

My main focus at the moment is to learn how to take quality photos that I can then sell offline/online and earn an extra income. Who knows... I might even be good enough some day to make a full time career out of it.

My hobbies & interests include;

* Photography
* Weights training and general fitness
* Playing guitar (and now learning drums too)
* Taking my boat out fishing
* Surfing
* Most outdoor activities that include action and adventure...

I look forward to your discussions on this forum.

Ha Ha...

Rhinoryan - You wouldn't get too many good photos of me surfing. As with photography I'm still a beginner but I always like to give things a crack. I live in Brisbane but try to get up the sunny coast as much as I can to take the board out.

Where abouts are you?
