Hi from Perth, WA!

Hi!! :D

I've been here a few weeks now, thought it was time to introduce myself!

My name is Sharnee, im 22 and im neewwwwww to photography.
I've always loved taking photos but only ever used a regular point and shoot or my phone camera.
I had a thread on the "new to photography" section on here to pick everyone's brains about what i should get for my first DSLR - thanks to everyone who replied to my questions and put up with my "decision paralysis" :lol:

Anyway I ended up going to the shops for a "look" the other day and came home with a Nikon D5200 (oopsie hehe) and just the kit lens for now.

Let the fun and learning begin!! :pentax:

G'day Sharnee.
The journey begins. Enjoy it.:th3:
There may be times when you think "why aren't I getting better at this?" That means you are getting better and setting higher standards.
Anyway, now you have something decent to take photos with, it may be worth the time to work through this free photography course, ........ http://www.ausphotography.net.au/forum/showlibrary.php?title=Indexes:New_To_Photography_Book :th3:
Was going to say don't be afraid to ask question and get involved, but .......:D
See you around AP occasionally.
