Introduction

[Dewpoint]

Hello, I have taken photos for little over half a year, however I have researched photography for atleast a year. I take photos mostly of wildlife specifically but not restricted to birds. I am also an avid videographer and learnt most about video at my school. I joined this forum on request of my school friend andrewvid who I take photos with eerynow and then. I use a canon 650D which took me almost a year of saving to buy, then another year to buy a Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 to replace a nikon lens from an old film slr camera that I pushed into use again. I like landscape photography but kinda suck at it and often keep a telephoto on my camera at all times. I live in sydney, australia and yeah I cant really think of anything else. If people want to know more about me just ask :)
