Hi... my name is John and I'm brand new to this site and live in Kenmore, Brisbane, Qld.
I'm very much a beginner with photography although I've held a long interest in wanting to learn and create...
I bought my first stepping stone a couple of weeks ago... an Olympus OM-D E-M5 with a M Zuiko ED 12-50mm f3.6-6.3 EZ lens...
Have been getting a very basic feel for the camera using mainly AUTO... but I am keen to let go of the apron strings and start learning about using the camera properly...
Look forward to learning heaps and to the feedback in helping me to improve...
Cheers... JCS60

Nothing wrong with the shots, John, but you have to post them in the appropriate CC (or Beginner's forums) to get CC.
(Sorry for the repetitiveness.) This is an Introductions form and thread.
