...to jump into things. Just navigating a new forum can be a real challenge until I get my bearings. Never hesitate stating the obvious to me. I can get lost in an empty parking lot.
Open Photography member Harvey Moore was the kind soul who introduced me to this lovely forum. I appreciate the friendly welcome I received from Asher Kelman.
Photo experience: Film, years ago...a lovely little Konica that finally bit the dust. Digital, started slowly last winter and really got into the thick of things in the spring. I'm trying to translate experience in drawing, painting and scene design into photography. The whole editing process was new to me as well.
Camera: Panasonic Lumix FZ7; Photo Editor: PaintShop Pro 9
Galleries: www.pbase.com/soenda...completely free ranging assortment of things that interest me. Freedom from film processing time and expense means I relish taking all kinds of photos. I discovered that everyday things fascinate me: objects large and small...animals, plants, people...construction sites, heavy machinery, utility poles...hub caps, motorcycles, drainspouts...If it will hold still long enough, I'll get around to shooting it.
Pbase and the Fred Miranda Photography Forum were my entree to digital photography. I was very fortunate to encounter several outstanding mentors there. For most of our married lives, my husband has been the family photographer. Now he's putting those energies into seeing me develop my skills. With the patience of three saints, he accompanies me to all my photo forays, keeps me from getting run over and cues me to good shots.
I'm looking forward to seeing what's happening here and to sharing my own work. Thanks for having me.
