Title: Hi, I'm new!
Post by: ScottyBoy on January 05, 2008, 11:56:10 PM
Hi, I'm Scotty.  I'm 15 yrs old and live in Washington state.  I'm home schooled and have just started getting into photography.  I'm at the very early learning stages still.  My parents gave me a Canon Rebel XTI for this Christmas and I'm still getting it figured out.  I'm looking forward to browsing around this site and gleaning from all of your expertise. 

Scotty  :cool:

Smokey is jealous! He wishes he had had a quality camera like that when he was that age.

Hi, Scotty.  Cool camera your parents got for you.  Photography is lots of fun.  Browse around, ask questions, and post your photos when you're ready.  People here are really helpful.

I'm a so-so photographer, but there are some really good ones here.  I usually just use my auto settings, and point and shoot. :)

Welcome to Christian Photography!    Oh, we are almost neighbors.  I'm in Oregon.   Nita

Hey there, Scotty  :wave: :welcome: :wave:

How exciting for your parents to give you such a great Christmas gift.   :)  :thumbsup:  I know you will have a lot of fun with it and learn quickly to be one great photographer. 

Me?  I don't even own a camera!   :-[  But they still let me hang around here at Christian Photographers. 

Yup, I'm another of your neighbors ... I'm in  Oregon (same as Nita)
