Hi everyone
I am new to this site having just discovered a passion for photography. I am a raw beginner and I am a bit old in the tooth per se but I am looking forward to learning and developing what skills I have.
After a knee replacement last year I found myself back doing arcylic painting which I had done in my youth but despite having brought dvds from an artist in America to relearn techniques, I find myself wanting to create my own masterpieces and the skills are somewhat lacking.
Prior to attending my daughter's recent wedding in Fiji I asked my ex to help me find a camera I could use with my arthritic hands as he is an excellent amateur photographer and he recommended an Olympus Stylus XZ-10. Little did I know that this great little camera would open a passion for taking photos I never knew I had and she is now my new best friend.
After many Photoshop tutorials and visits to different Websites I find myself here, eager to learn and then to take the next step of buying another camera down the track as after following in his footsteps in Fiji and watching him take some superb photos, I am quite envious of his zoom range which unfortunately the XZ-10 doesn't have.
