Hello all..

I have known about this site for a few weeks but finally signed up tonight. I have always loved photography and used to help my father develop pictures in his dark room in the basement of my parents house. I am here to meet new people and learn from the amateur and professional photographers. A few months ago I purchased the Canon rebel XSI. I have not learned all of the functions but hope to soon. ( Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. ) Once I get settled I will up load some of my pictures. (some taken from a regular point and shoot) I look forward to meeting all of you and hopefully learning lots of new tips and techniques. I am looking into going back to school for digital photography and open my own business. It has always been a dream of mine to become a photographer.
