Just stumbled upon this forum and thought I'd give it a shot. My fabulous mother surprised me with a camera this year for Christmas...and I'm loving it! I've always had a point and shoot it seems, and this is my first DSLR. More often than not, I feel like I've just gotten lucky at times--so hoping to become more consistent.
I'm from near a tiny little village in Ohio that most people haven't heard about...but there are some great areas around here to hike and ride. I've got a couple of ponies...so I do a lot of riding. And they double up as subjects for me to snap pictures of.
My boyfriend has also been using my camera in conjunction with his telescope and motorized mount to try to learn a bit about astrophotography.

Welcome and tell your BF I've got a 8inch telescope and my T Adapter but have not used it outside yet due to the darn cold temps. Can't afford to keep the control panel in Hand and Toe warmers. LOL

Hi Cricket,
Are you the one that worked at the gym in Chesapeake, Ohio. I'm Bud Casto that went the same time as you and knew everyone there. We now live in Cincinnati, Ohio close to our only daughter and 3 grandchildren. Tell your dad I said Hi.

Welcome Crickett, I hunt down in Vinton and Athen's county, it reminds me of home back in East Tennessee. Waiting to see some photo's.

Hi Cricket, Welcome! This is a great site, I've only found one bad thing about it, it's addicting!!! lolol Would love to see some of your pictures!
Welcome, enjoy yourself. From a transplanted "Buckeye".
Thanks for the warm welcomes :) Seems like quite a few from Ohio! I'm in Ross County myself, but very close to the Pike County border. I went to college in Nelsonville (down near Athens)...gorgeous area.
Bud Casto--sorry, wrong person.
I'll have to get some of my pictures up soon...maybe tonight after work when I have access to them. They are on my laptop, which is currently not with me!
Welcome Cricket - you'll enjoy this place. Just wondering how close you are to Chillicothe - used to live there.
