Hello everyone

My name is Shaun, I'm 31 from Sydney. I started following the interest of photography in December 2015 then decided in January 2016 to start taking it up.


Been learning a lot along the way. Still a complete beginner.


Currently equipment:
Canon 600D
Tokina 10-24mm 2.8
Canon nifty fifty
Canon 24mm
Canon 18-55mm kit lens
Tokina 70-200mm (very old lens)
Manfrotto tripod I bought off a work friend.
Some eBay shutter release
Lowpro camera bag
And other random useless things beginners seem to buy a lot of.


I don't actually have a specific 'thing' I want to learn, I am keen to learn it all from landscape, Astro, cars, portraits and so on. The art of photography itself is amazing and for me it's an expression of the moment no matter what the moment is.


I am really hoping to meet up with some of you pros and learn a trick or 10:)


Feel free to say hi


Thank you for your time


- Shaun

No worries. It pays just to use the normal font and colours for the majority of posts, I've found.
Sure, change them sometimes for effects, etc...
