Hi!

I still remember going around my hometown in Ukraine while making a rectangle with my index fingers and thumbs making "pictures". That was 12 years ago. Last week I was 20 and, at last, gathered enough money for a camera. It is supposed to arrive on Tuesday here to Spain were I live now. I can't wait! It's a Nikon D5000 with no lens. I am going to borrow one while I decide witch one to buy. (a 18 to 105 VR maybe?)

So... I hope I can join you in long and interesting talks about our passion and hopefully become an acceptable photographer.

And congratulations on the Web Gordon, really!

Ivan Manko

Welcome.
Looking forward to seeing your pics Ivan.

Living in Barcelona, you have a wealth of subject matter & architecture, so maybe also consider a wide angle lens.

Welcome on-board Ivan!

You're not short on choices for general-purpose lenses for the Nikon mount. You may find this guide useful: http://www.cameralabs.com/lenses/lens_b ... nses.shtml
