Hey Everyone,

I got my first real camera, a Nikon D5100 for my 21st a few months ago after years of wanting to get into photography. I have been able to learn a fair amount by just using my camera and messing around. I have just started experimenting with full manual mode in the last few weeks.

My main lens in a Sigma 18-250mm Macro HSM, which I know is not amazing but the flexibility really helps. I also have a Nikon 50mm 1.8g which I have been neglecting a bit lately.

I am currently studying Environmental Science in Melbourne so naturally I have found myself taking a lot of Landscape, Plant and Wildlife pictures.

I plan on uploading some of my images in he next week. Hopefully I will be able to get some good advice.

Thanks
