Hey, welcome, Chris Ashley!

Got questions?

Start a new thread for each main question. If it is about a photograph, show an example of a photograph you took. (Don't post any photo that is not yours.)

If your question is about equipment, look for the forum that most closely matches your gear question.

If you just want some critique and commentary, post a photograph and be specific about your question. There is a thread that explains the best way to post for critique.

Welcome to TPF! To get comfortable with the forum, spend some time looking at the main forum page, and at all the sub-forums, including the Galleries. You're a beginner, so you may want to post some general questions in the beginner's forum. When you'd like to post some of your work, check out the Photo Galleries and all the different categories (such as Landscape, People, etc.) and choose the one that best suits your subject matter.

You'll learn your way around soon enough. Take your time, and have fun. We're glad you're here!
