Heyla all

Hi,

I'm fairly new to photography, my Mum gave me a camera to play with that she was not using, Cannon Eos something, I think. I've had it for about a year, and mostly have been playing around with it when I remember. It does help that I have an extremely photogenic cat that even a new photog can take ok pics with. (I think...maybe)

:smiles: I seem to gravitate to non-people pics, such as the cats, and landscapes from odd viewpoints. I'm slowly trying to learn more about photography in my free time (hah) which is especially fun right now while I work night shift. (note sarcasm) I'm also gradually learning how to use lightroom, although I don't seem to be inclined to much use of photoshop or other major editing software.

I'd love some tips on how to improve what I'm looking for when aiming the camera, we'll see how it goes. I'm more critical on myself than I think most others will be...:shrug: I'm still learning all the settings, but I keep trying new things.

Ok, I'll just keep chattering if I'm not careful, so yall have a good evening/morning/ect from Maryland.

--Dawn

Hello and welcome!

What you look for is something that other people have not noticed, or things that you can show photographically that interpret your own interests. Have fun with it!
