Hi there
#1

I have had a camera since childhood, and now I'm retired I have a really good DSLR (my average to good 35mm is still in the house. Somewhere). My results vary from OK to Oh Dear, with the occasional Fantastic, and I hope to get less of the Oh Dear as I get to used to it more. Time will tell. Angel

Welcome Alan, from another retiree. What type of subject matter do you photograph? I have a Nikon D80, what type of DSLR do you yourself use?

Ask yourself, "What's most important for the final image?".

Thanks Jocko.
I have usually gone for landscapes, and have lately taken to wildlife shots. They do tend to mix anyway. The latter I would like to get better, the opportunities I now have are quite good. A pity my reactions are not that good, but I have got what I was looking for some of the time.
