Hi,
My name is Vicki and I just signed in for the first time. I am fairly new to this but love to take pics. I learned of this site a couple of months age while on a trip to Branson, MO. I was getting my oil changed and a nice gentleman noticed my camera and struck up a conversation with me. I learned a lot in the short time I talked with him.
I am looking forward to seeing photos and learning more.
Vicki

Welcome, Vicki! (And thank you for spelling things like "site" correctly!) Everyone learns differently, but there are a few givens with photography: 1) look at and think about as many photos as you can (here, books, magazines, other photographers' sites, etc.); 2) take lots of photos yourself, and try to understand why you like or dislike the results, and 3) don't be afraid to ask questions. Dig in!

[quote=vickicoats]Hi,
Welcome to the HOG, Vicki. Try to learn how to view your camera data in your computer. When you see the settings you can learn how to change this and that and experiment. I also agree view as many picture as you can. I have imitated other photographs when I like them. David
