Hello everyone

I am a new member here. I like to think that I am a pretty good photographer, but after looking at some of the images posted here I see that I have a long way to go...I hope I can bring my ability up on par with everyone here.

Welcome Gabriel. Don't feel intimidated, just post what you like. Everyone here is learning in some way or another, no matter how much experience one has.

[Leehman]

Hello Gabiel.
I am very recent here also. The folks at this site are super nice.
Welcome.

Gabriel, you'll love it here.* I've met some really neat folks on here and all are very helpful.* I'm no pro and just a hobby photographer and I've never been made to feel embarrassed or anything by anyone here.

So, join right in.* Have you introduced yourself yet? You can do that HERE.

It is sooo cold here, I finally broke down and light a fire. :

Looks like something from war- of- the- worlds , you should clone in the top of a tripod looking down at them in the window ...

Some great entries in here.*

You're all too good! I knew I shouldn't have entered.* *:-\

I think this comp has raised the bar. Whoever wins, the image is going to be outstanding.

[Leehman]

I am sure lucky to be in with these photographers.
These shots are all gold medal winners to me.

Erm, not sure of your point there Martin :-\. Anyway, be careful or I'll nobble your votes .

I have a rather interesting observation to offer. In viewing the photo's JUST from this contest, it is an exercise in excellence, there are more professional quality photo's in this one contest than I have witnessed in a year observing DPR. It appears there are more ACTUAL photographers on this forum and less TECHIES measuring equipment capabilities and consuming the mechanical attributes of hardware.
Brand loyalty is possibly the strangest phenomenon to befall the photography world. Speaking for myself, I over the years have owned and used at least 12 different brands of cameras as well as a variety of printers, film, scanners etc. and I have only one loyalty....that is to try to utilize whatever I have to it's greatest ability, including me.
It is truly refreshing to view most of the photo's displayed here and observe the comaradery is see every day here instead of people carping and chipping away at some technical flaw in ones chosen instrument.
Cheers!

Sidebyte, what a great post and I so heartily agree!

[Paul Shields]

Ditto. Well expressed Sidebyte.

The total votes stated is only half the number of real votes. Maybe an old thing, but it comes to my attention just now.
