New to photography, Still learning something new everyday!

All the photos up untill 25.12.06 are using an Olympus C-370, which is a compact cheapy camera which was fantastic for getting me started.

From Xmas day 2006 to January 2008 i was using a Kodak Z710.

Now finally in January 2008 i have the camera i have been waiting for, a Nikon D40x, and to be honest its taking some getting used to!

I have recently got Photoshop and am having a hell of a time tearing my hair out trying to make it work!!

A few of the pictures in my stream are photoshopped,

I am dubious about using it all the time as i prefer to capture the moment, rather than edit it in later!

I have nothing against people using Photoshop, some of the images on Flickr that have been Photoshopped are truly amazing!

I try to find something interesting in everything i look at so some of the pics are a bit weird

Please let me know what you think of the pics in my album as this is the reason i have signed up to Flickr, so i can find out what people really think!!!

Cheers everyone

Paul
