Hello from Calgary, Canada

Hi Everyone,

Great forum! My name is Derek. I've been lurking for a few weeks and just started posting recently. I have been having fun taking photos for awhile. Used to do film for years and really enjoyed it. Then my trusty minolta died on me and I ended up with a fujifilm finepix digital which was alright but I really missed the precision of the slr. I recently got divorced and lost the camera which turned into a great excuse to upgrade to a Canon XT rebel with a kit lens and added a nicer Canon 28-105mm USM II lens.

I love all aspects of photography but I'm very new to the processing bit. I'm picking up some great tips already here and look forward to learning so much more about this hobby.

Here are a few pics of mine in no particular order.

1. Self portrait

2. Regent Street London England

3. Sandy Hand in Hawaii

Hey, another Calgarian, we'll soon outnumber Edmontonians!

Hi Derek, welcome aboard.

Thanks for the kind welcomes! It's nice to see there are some locals here in Calgary too.

You Calgarians may out number us Edmontonians around here...but I'm doing my best to see that we still out weight you

Welcome to the forum.
