Hi everyone....

52 years young Scots bloke here now living in England....

Really just starting to get into this photo lark after buying my 600d (i beleive its a Rebel to my transatlantic cousins!) .... Had a couple of courses to learn the basics of the camera and am reading as much as i can daily whenever i want to put things into practice.... I think i am improving but who knows?


Anyway i hope to be active here and if i can just make 1 suggestion to the mod(s) - Gordon? - ypu ought to set a sticky "Say Hello" Topic instead of letting us all create our own ;)

Will post some pics soon and look forward to discussing how good , bad or downright awful they are with folks here...

-Gordon

Welcome Gordon.
Don't be afraid to ask about anything you're not sure about. The only daft question is the one you didn't ask! :wink:

Look forward to seeing a few of your pics 8)

Welcome Gordon, P mode is a good starter and gives you a good base line for setting while you are learning to drive it.

Cheers
