Default The Personal Touch

Okay so I've been kinda figuring out how to do this, and reading some of the other posts I have to admit I like the smaller but active community best. The personal touch is definitely better IMO.

I just love photography have done ever since I was little, but it's only recently I've decided to take the hobby up seriously enough to get myself a DSLR. My new toy is a Canon EOS 450D and so far I really love this camera, but I still have so much to learn.

Hi Wendy and welcome, we all still have so much to learn here, I learn the most from feedback on images as everyone see a image differently. Anyway we will look forward to seeing some of your work soon.
