Well, since I'm suddenly a Shuttertalk Smooth Talker, I guess I should introduce myself.

My real name is Colin Carmichael and I am, as far as I know, the only North American on this forum!! I am brand new to digital & 'manual' photography having only ever owned cheap film P&S cameras. I dabble in PHP programming (mostly cut&paste ) and web design which is how I came across this site in the first place. I run the website for a Christian Family Camp and use punBB for the Camper Forum. Anyway, enough about that. Anyone who saw my first ST post knows that I am happily married - except when shopping for big-ticket items such as digicams! In my spare time, I'm a full-time student at Wilfrid Laurier University studying political science and philosophy. I also play alot of hockey - real hockey... as in ice.

That's me.

uhahua ..
i played inline hockey before ..
i loved it ..

i cant iceskate though ~_~
haha .. php .. nice ..
im learning PHP .. but it gets annnoyin after a while ..
~_~

well .. a late welcome ..
but Welcome to Shuttertalk!

I used to play real hockey on grass haha

Hey Cailean,

Great to have you onboard! You may be right - you're probably the only active North American in these forums. It's funny how many of us here have so much in common.

Hey if you're into hockey - do you take photos at games too? It would be great to see some 12x stablised zoom action shots

Quote:I used to play real hockey on grass haha

Same here!
Except it was synthetic grass

Was it super turf .. ?
hockey balls seem like they r gfloating forever on that stuff !

hockey balls? I'm so confused!!!

I've been at work all weekend so I haven't been able to post any of my pics... will do as soon as I can!

Grass hockey uses balls ..
not pucks ...

do u play curdling or whateva that sports called in Canada ...
its a strange sport ...

sorta like the ice equvelent of lawn bowls

I've curled once... but I watch it alot on TV during the season. It's a great strategy game.

Heheh, in this part of the world, we play hockey on grass, using funny hooked wooden sticks and balls. Oh yeah... and you run, not skate
