Hi all,

My name is Damian and I live on the Sunshine Coast in QLD. I started taking up photography about 6 months ago and i've loved it every since. I still have much to learn and am looking forward to learning from everyone here on the forums. I currently have a Canon 60D with a couple of aftermarket lenses, but eventually want to upgrade to a full frame camera.

Looking forward to chatting more,

Damo

Found ya :). Welcome - like I mentioned last night you'll get HEAPS from this forum. Get into the learning plans to help fill in the gaps. The competitions are great too as you can get a gauge for where you sit in relation to other entries, and helps you push harder and get better (well it has for me anyway!).

Get some of your shots from Saturday up for critique, and critique others photos - that's also a very useful skill to have as it gets the brain ticking about what does and doesn't work and why, and you may eventually find yourself critiquing what's in your viewfinder before you hit the shutter.

Check out the Library at http://www.ausphotography.net.au/forum/showlibrary.php - the 'new to photography' section is where the learning gear is but everything in the Library is of benefit.

Maybe have a look at the New to Photography (http://www.ausphotography.net.au/forum/showlibrary.php?title=Books:New_To_Photography_Book) book and the Learning Plan in the book.
