[QUOTE="snaphappy, post: 111403, member: 12198"] Thank you Rexer John that was very nice to read and you are absolutely right! I also love looking at everyone's photos from all over the world and seeing things through others eyes. I think it's fantastic when my kids take my old Sony H9 and take pics because they come back with fantastic photos of things I would never think to take :cool: I've only been using an slr in anything other than auto or scene modes for just over a week so I should relax but get over myself LOL I've been frustrated lately because I just can't seem to get the snow photos right. I've read and watched videos so kindly offered but I'm still frustrated by dull or over bright glowing snow in the background. Unfortunately nothing is learned overnight or by osmosis :) I've been focusing on changing exposure but tomorrow I'll head back to the manual and learn about aperture. As I've been fiddling I've learned that Aperture and exposure need to work together so ready for my next step. This weekend has been a busy one so no time for reading [/QUOTE]
