Hello,
I am new photography any help or advise you can give me will be highly appreciated.
I own a Rebel and a Nikon, but rarely ever used them due to lack of time. I now have all the time in the world. Currently disabled after my accident and I suffer from a condition called CRPS. It's a condition that affects the nerves on my legs and I live in constant pain, but enough of that.

Photography will be my therapy!

I am very sorry to hear about your accident. I am fairly new to photography too(at least as a hobby). I struggle with depression, and photography sure has been great therapy for me.
Much looking forward to enjoying your photos. What I have learned, and the best advice I would give is just keep shooting, have fun with it, and be creative. It all makes for great practice. I just joined a camera club in my town as well, which I think will be good. Hope that helps you some.
Take care,
PhotoNat

Welcome. Hopefully, photography will be good therapy for you. It can be very addictive but healthy, too.
