Hi all.
New to the forum.My name is Andy and i'm from sunny cornwall in the uk. I have been working as a mac operator in the commercial print industry for last ten years.
I have just got the photography bug and bought a 350d, two zooms and a flashgun (modest by the amount of gear some of you guys have). I have found photography through my other main interest, 3d art/animation using 3ds max. Trouble is now I am spending more time with the camera and not enough time working on my projects!
Happened across your site and glad I did. Its a fantastic source of information for a newbie like myself.
Looking forward to the learning curve :D

Hi Andy. I'm in Cornwall also. New to digital myself but been a working photographer for many years. If you want to meet up for a beer and a chat about photography (and if wifey's permit!) then i'll PM you my phone number later. My time is filling up rapidly, though I am trying to keep my sunday afternoons free. Where abouts in the county are you ?

Hi Catsith...yup we get plenty of rain mate... but also plenty of sunshine and crystal clear waters and some lovely villages, complete with villiage pubs!!!

75D Thanks for the welcome mate. Hope to learn quite a bit from you guys. Already taken in much info by using the forums search.

Hey vwyob. I'm guessing you are a campervan nut? I live just outside newquay mate but work in Redruth. They have got the ripcurl boardriders comp on at the moment so been keeping out of town. I will take you up on the chat if thats ok.
How about the Lewinnick Lodge at pentire head on sunday? I'll bring the missus (heavily pregnant at the moment). I'll PM you my home number.

Thanks again all....
