Ok everyone please read

bavasshokie

This is the deal. I am new to Smugmug and to Dgrin.com. I am new to Digital Photography. I have posted some pics on here as well as smugmug. http://bavasshokie.smugmug.com anyway I joined this forum to meet new people look at photo's and have people see my work and give me feedback to make me a better photographer. So I am starting this thread to meet people. A little about myself first. Name is Andy Vass I live in Waynesboro Virginia and work in Radiology at the University of Virginia Medical Center I am in school earning a degree in IT. I was big into photography back in high school when I bought my first SLR it was a Minolta t107 I think, then one year my father gave me a Yashika SLR was never happy with that camera 3 weeks ago I bought my first DSLR it is an Olympus E500 and I love it. I want to get the E510 next and have my E500 converted to Infrared. Anyway I want to make some friends on here and talk, chat what ever you prefer so if some people will that would be great. I would like to be able to share thoughts, feedback, and photos. So next.....

First and formost WELCOME!!

Secondly...get a Photobucket account one where you can actually attach a picture...that's usually the norm around here, some people (including myself) just don't like clicking on links...I for one am a little weary of links. I'm sure, you being an IT student, can understand the concern. So if you can just attach your picture next time. People will love you for that.

Lastly, I looked at your website...beautiful work...absolutely beautiful, you have a great eye for this stuff.

Hope to see more of your work in the coming days.

Again, welcome and post away!

Great idea. I had a spare D70 kicking around and had it coverted to IR. The little camera now has a whole new life.
