Hello,
My name is Davis and I am a Hiker, Runner, Video Game(Metal Gear/ Street Fighter Anyone?)/Movie( Fight Club/Old-Boy Anyone?)/Hip-Hop Fan(mostly underground, Logic/Jon Connor/Childish Gambino Anyone?.
I recently Graduated with a Degree in Business Finance, but really enjoy Design, Typography, and Photography.
I've always been interested in photography and read about it here and there, but never had the funds.
I recently went on a trip to Yosemite and took a handful of photos on my Point and Shoot and Iphone.
Needless to say I was very disappointed in the quality of my photos.
I normally hike during the Spring & Fall, but will start hiking in the Winter too and want to be able to capture great landscape photos of all of my hikes.
Normally I try to tackle long hikes of over 12+ miles, and for safety reasons I barely stay at the summits( to avoid nightfall on the way back). I thought buying a entry-level DSLR would allow me to capture these moments and appreciate the beautiful views better.
I've only been hiking for three years now, but thought it was a perfect time to get started in learning and investing into photography before I start hiking again.
I will probably buy my first DSLR body and Lens within the next 2-3 months.
Currently I am reading the tutorials on the beginners forum & guides at exposureguide.com( recommended by a friend)
if you have any recommendations on other websites for newbies i would appreciate it!
I look forward to learning from everyone from this forum!!!:mrgreen:
