Thank you all for the warm welcome, I am looking forward to any and all helpful hints in my pursuit of more enjoyable photographs. I think like most people, I see something random, unique or beautiful and just feel the need to take a picture, it may as well be the best that the eye or the equipment can capture.
I came across this site and figured, hey why not, I'm sure there are many of you on here who can give a novice all kind of photography hints. I just love to snap a picture of anything that looks unique or interesting, sometimes it actually comes out half decent but, alas usually by pure chance.
