New guy from NY

Hey everyone!
I've been looking for a good photography forum for a while and it looks like I finally found it.

My name is Henry and I'm in Queens, NY. I'm not terribly new to photography but I am quite young. 14 to be exact. Most of my work can be found at Deviant Art (http://orionxrt.deviantart.com). That's where more info on me can be found too.

I am a digital consumer. To be honest, I have never taken a picture with a film camera other than the one time use kodaks :roll: Digital photography was something I always liked, but never really understood. About 6 months to a year ago (precise, arent I?), it became a serious hobby for me. That's when I finally learned words like aperture and TTL.

Well, I hope being on this forum helps me to develop my skills and inspires me in general.

Maybe he just likes the constellations, Matt. :wink:

I'm curious, too!

Welcome to the forum, Orion! You're quite articulate. Post some of your stuff and have fun!

yeah I did get it from constellations but that was a looooong time ago so I just stick with it now for no reason other than being used to it. Too bad lots of people have it on other forums/sites...
