Hello POTN members - a friend recommended your site to me. I am a recreational photographer getting back in the SLR scene with a Nikon D40.

Here are a few pictures I have taken these past two years. I am looking to improve my skills and do more manual shooting. I look forward to the discussions :cool:

I'd post this in the Critique Corner...

Critique Corner

You are currently in the Kids & Family section. You'll get much better feedback in the forum listed above.

Maybe an admin/mod will move this for you.

Thanks, I didn't see an intro area and planned on just posting kid pictures and one thing led to another. Great way to start out :lol:

I will repost this there, thank you. Moderator - please remove this thread.

Welcome Joe from the other side of the State.


I just got my first pair of glasses that I didn't think I needed. I apologize to anybody in the past year that I said their pictures were out of focus lol.
