I was forced into early retirement by a heart attack 2 years ago and my wife got a T1i canon for me to have something to do. I immediately became impassioned with photograpy! I take as many classes as I can afford and am looking forward to learning from everyone on this forum. I go nowhere without my photo bag.

WELCOME and hang in there, I had 6 by passes and started playing with photography. I lived through that hell, so what I do is give back. I do a lot of photo jobs for a buck. And it helps me with my skill. Something to do.
WELCOME anGODbless

The best teacher is called Practice and Post.
Go take pictures and post them on Ugly for some of the most sensible help available.
Good Luck and welcome, but just remember, like Oxycodone , the Hedgehog is addictive but not at all harmful.
