A warm South African Hallo to All,

Grumpy Old Bag

Senior Member
I am a member of another two forums on Photography, one for learning Photographers and the other a forum based in SA. Been a active member of one of them for more than a year now I have really learned a lot from other members. Learning more about photography is the only goal for me, joining a forum like this.

Wanting to spread my wings a little wider I have been surfing the Web for another forum to join. Finding “Nikonites” where no “Canonian” will dare to post :beguiled:, was inviting to me and I entered. What do I find? An objective, straight forward, honest comment on an image called “The Blue Bridge”. No Ohoo Ahaa, just straight forward honest critique, I love it.

I can sometimes stir a little, some members might not always agree with what I say but that is the way I like to learn, don’t just swallow everything everybody else have to say :eek:. I am a real Grumpy Old Bag and if you want to kick me off this forum you should do so, NOW! :playful:

Thanks for the opportunity to be a member of this forum. I am sure I will learn lots from you Folks on here. To all those reading this, please don’t be nice to me, just be gentle in telling me my work is crappy. I am not here to have my frail ego boosted, I am here to learn how to take beter pictures. :eek:

I am looking forward to be a member and hope that I will be able to contribute something that will be of some help to others.

I will now try and post one of my images, in the appropriate thread, so you people can get a better idea of my inability as a hobbyist photographer.:sorrow:

Regards,
Andre.

Lol Well I'm friendly to everybody Grumpy, and I'm not experienced enough to make a good critic. So you may have to just bare with me liking your photos! Lol :D But I promise I won't require you to add me to your friends list though you'd be welcome! ;) And finally I want to welcome you to nikonites, and I hope you find the feedback your needing to help you step up your game! :D

Hi Don,
Thank You.
I did fill out my profile, perhaps this is a standard question or have I missed something? I am an idiot with this computer technology thing, was born before CD's and Cell Phones. :eek:
Why does Windows so often tell me that Nikonites.com is not responding? Perhaps the Windows guys are Canonians.:mad:

Thanks for the guidance.
