Hello all!

Hey guys...you'd think that after 50ish posts that I would have introduced myself by now! :oops:

I recognise a few of your names from a couple of forums I lurk or participate on, but I guess I should tell you a little about myself.

I'm a uni student studying Law and Psychological Science (2nd and 3rs years respectively). For me, it's a hell of a workload, and keeps me pretty damn busy. I'm only 20 - so it keeps me out of trouble I spose :wink:

If I'm not at uni (almost done for the year :D ) there's a reasonable chance you'll find me working. I currently work for a bottlo - a job that I enjoy - and something that has given me a basic understanding of wine - which is pretty interesting stuff.

I live on the Northside of Brisbane - in the Caboolture Shire - *but* I have a secret!

To a degree, I must admit to being an imposter here. I don't own a dslr. (Though I hope this to change - depending largely on my wallet). While I do own a digital camera, and am uber proficient in turning it on and off - and pressing the shutter button (better word?)...

I wouldn't say that I have a mastery of this photography stuff - and I must admit to getting disappointed by some of the results. Though I am not sure if this is me, or what the camera limits me to. It's a strange feeling.

I really like your little community you guys have here - and I hope to pick your brains about many things photography related.

James.

Pick away James - that's what we're here for. Remember there're no such things as dumb questions, only dumb people. :wink:
