Hi All,
l've just joined and still trying to figure my way around the site.

A few words about me.

I'm in my early 50's (where did the years go!) and have owned and used cameras since my mid teens (Mainly Canon SLR's). I'm an engineer by profession and work in Sydney having moved here just over 3 years ago. My interests are photography (naturally) classic cars, watches food and wine.

I got into digital photography about 6 or 7 years ago when I brought my first Nikon (D80). More recently I picked up a D7000 which I'm happy with.
I'll post some photos soon and would welcome some feedback.

Steve

Welcome to AP Steve. Our maximum image size loaded to the site is 1024 pixels on the longest side and 250KB, but you can link in larger files.

If you use flickr or photobucket you can just link your files from there (or other sites) into Ausphotography, Check out the Library on the site main menu and then go to the How Do I section for further information and tutorials.

G'day and welcome also Steven.
While I've taken some photos of wine, I'm more interest in drinking it!:D

Hope to see you around AP.
