I have been lurking and looking at all of the wonderful talent here. It seems that the nature of the board is rather friendly and helpful. I don't mind competition, but I must compliment all of you on a warm supportive environment. It is one of the reasons that I thought that I could post some of my family pictures here. I own a Nikon D70 with the 18-70 lens. The third picture down was taken with my Fuji-s602, before I sold it to buy the Nikon.

    Very nice shot thumb.gif , though there's a little too much blue in it, I guess :)
    have a quick look at my portfolio (there's a photolog, too) :: (11-07-2006) experiencing a new flash portfolio. What do you think?
