Hi dgrinners :D
(i wonder why do they call it dgrinners? cool name though)
allow me to introduce myself;
my name's tim and i'm a high school student. (currently a senior)
i just recently discovered this forum through random search in google, like yesterday (lol).
and i just recently discovered that i have "passion" for photography too :D,
like, 1 month ago. :D, so then i bought me my very first dslr ever!! a canon rebel xti + 18-55IS, 28-105mm USM.
the other forum i joined weren't as lively and as fun as this one so i decided to ditch that garbage and joined this one instead.
nice meeting y'all!!

p.s. i currently resides in NYC and theres nothing to photgraph here :dunno
and i'll post some of my 'work' soon ;p

uh lol.
um, its just i'm more suited towards nature/wilderness settings rather than hectic-city 24/7 always active city. everywhere you see is big concrete of tall buildings and rarely any nature view.

I'd focus on the people...

I, too, live in a big city and sometimes wish I could see nature more often. But there's beauty to be found in urban settings if you learn to look carefully. It takes some practice, but the streets are full of poetry so just get out there and find it. :thumb

Oh, and welcome to Dgrin. :wave
