New old 50 yr beginner.... can I post here?

jdmartin8 · Jan 4, 2005

I've just celebrated my 50th birthday, and have decided to finally make my hobby photographing landscape. The wife and I own a couple of pieces of property in the Smoky Mountains, within easy walking distance of the Smoky Mountains National Park. If you've never been there, the photo opportunities are truly UNLIMITED !!

I just want to make sure that I can post questions here relating to landscape photography, and please remember that I am a VERY new beginner to photography in general.

Hello to all.....

May I be the first one in welcoming you to the forum!

There are many people here who I'm sure would be able to help you with whatever questions you come up with.

Can I second that gesture?

jdmartin8, you can also share some of your pictures here http://www.thephotoforum.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=10

And remember, the only stupid question is the one left unasked.

Hi Jim, post any questions you have and I'm sure someone here can answer it for you! Also, after you start taking photos, post some in the next forum down "The Photo Gallery - post your photos here!"

good luck with everything
