Hi All :)

Hi All :)!
Brand new member here, I guess I would call myself beginner just peeking over the wall to intermediate…sooo much to learn but what a fabulous lesson it is! I get great pleasure from photography and love documentary photography, fine art photography, photojournalism, glamour and fashion... . I'm really not sure at this stage what area I would like to steer toward but if I was to pick what I enjoy right now it would be portraiture.
Anyway, I’m very glad to be here and looking forward to chatting (and learning) through this marvellous forum.

Cheers,
Flailinginge

Thank you everyone for being so welcoming :D:D

I love this quote:

"When Jack London had his portrait made by the noted San Francisco photographer Arnold Genthe, London began the encounter with effusive praise for the photographic art of his friend and fellow bohemian, Genthe. "you must have a wonderful camera...It must be the best camera in the world...You must show me your camera." Genthe then used his standard studio camera to make what has since become a classic picture of Jack London. When the sitting was finished, Genthe could not contain himself: "I have read your books, Jack, and I think they are important works of art. You must have a wonderful typewriter." - Anonymous (http://www.photoquotes.com/showquotes.aspx?id=77&name=Anonymous)
