Hi to all:
I have been bitten by the photography bug for a year now. Started out with a Nikon D3200 with 2 kit lenses and I have since upgraded to a used Nikon D7000.
I have accumulated a pretty extensive collection of lenses. Just about all of these lenses were purchased on eBay with a very patient approach in limiting my purchase price to where I feel I would be getting a great deal.
My favorite lenses are a Nikkor 85mm F1.8 AF and a Nikkor 105mm F2.8 AF.
I love taking photos of landscapes and sports, especially baseball, basketball and football. My Nikkor 80-200 F2.8 AF is my best friend for these shots.
My camera is with me just about every day, and have gotten most of my special photos because I just happened to have my camera.
Had a brief experience with a film camera about 30+ years ago! but didn't care for the cost to have bad photos developed and having to wait almost a week to see results.
The new DSLR's gives me the instant results I love and the cost is minimized by only printing the special photos.

Thanks to all for the warm welcome.
For those of you looking to take photos of snow falling, please feel free to visit RI today, tomorrow or Wednesday. Current forecast is 20" to 30". That's a lot of flakes for me to practice with.

Aloha Paul and welcome to UHH. Love your photos and your sports shots are really nice. I'm also into sports photography but only with tennis. As for the snow flake shots I'll leave that totally up to you. This site can be very addictive. The main thing is to have fun and enjoy.
