Love the contrasts and texture.

So many of you responded to my introduction email. I was surprised and happy about that. I began to answer each one (hence the reply just to Mike) but perhaps it would be just a effective to express my appreciation to everyone in one note, so THANKS TO ALL for the great welcome!

Thanks for the welcome, Mike!

Hi, I'm new to the Forum and also new to photography. I recently purchased a Nikon D5100 with the typical 18-55mm lens and just ordered a new Nikon 55-300mm AF-S DX G ED VR Zoom lens. Haven't gotten it yet, but I'm excited. I have ALOT to learn about this camera and photography in general, so I'll try to absorb all I can from you all and turn it into pictures worth looking at. I live in the Central Florida area. Name's Bob.
