G'day everyone, I'm Paul (Shaking hands)...

I've met some of you on other forums, I'm in Margaret River in south west WA. I use Nikon gear and tend to go through phases as I learn this game, this month I'm learning portraits :lol:
I've sold the odd thing but that's it, I won't be buying a semi-load of Profoto stuff anytime soon.

Here's 4 images, a cross-section of what I do (sort of)

A Pretty Flower

Lake Cave

This is me, when I realised I wasn't good enough for Magnum...

Hi Paul, and welcome. I like your images, particularly the last one. A good mood shot.

Welcome Paul, thanks for showing us your images. I hope you find it a useful, friendly and conducive forum to expand and share your knowledge. My fiance and I are heading to your township in March!!

Welcome, Paul.

Excellent images. The first strikes me as a simple image of a flower welcoming morning sun. Fantastic.

Welcome Paul.

An appealing quartet of shots. I like the mood of #2, I've never seen the MR hotel quiet - it never is when I'm there. The self portrait (#4) is a strong image, very well lit.

Welcome mate, (even if you do use Nikon gear :wink:). That last shot looks like it could be one of us Collingwood supporters after we've narrowly lost another GF/SF in late September by 4-5 points ... :D

Love the the cave shot

Oz could be right about the last but great shot & good in b/w
