Default hi everyone I am new to potn

Hello
About a years ago I bought canon g10 .
I really like photography but sometimes its heart breaking because my pictures dont turn out.
I havent never owned any camera besides cheap automatic auto focus camera.
Now I need to learn product photography.
but photo terms are confusing .
I hope to improve my photography skill.
anyway I wanted to hello and I hope to someday take some cool pics.

Welcome Farmer... Don't worry, like many others here, I've been shooting for over 40 years, still have my "heart breaking" moments when things don't turn out. At least now the heartbreak isn't so expensive as it was back in the film days where you had to pay (and wait) to see your screw-ups. You picked a great place to start, there is hardly a day that goes by that I don't learn something, POTN is definitely time well spent.

Post some pictures, and keep trying, you can only get better!
