Howdy everyone! :)

I'm a full Newbie for sure, new to this Forum and new to Photography! lol :) I got a new D3100 Nikon and I'm loving it so far. I fell in love with macro pics when I first started using a blackberry and often had a few downloaded onto my berry. So after few years I finally decided to try to get what I needed to take my own. lol
So I thought I'd join up, to learn, and then share some pics (when I can take any worth sharing). lol

If I get good enough at it I might even post them as wallpapers on my Smart Phone Forum! lol :)

​Anyway I hope to have a blast here with you all! :)

I'm going to visit near Waynesville next week. Can't wait!!
I don't know much about NC to tell the truth. lol I lived in Oregon most of my life, and just moved here about three years ago to marry my wife. :) But my wife knows that area and loved it when she lived there. :)

Okay, let's try this again! LOL! I got my D3100 last Friday, already taken close to 500 pictures and that was just Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Haven't been able to have it out since getting home Sunday night because of work and other obligations. I want to go play!

Even though you've been here for 3 years, you're still a newb to NC so welcome to the Old North State! I've lived in Asheville my entire live, from the mountains to the sea this is a beautiful state with lots to photograph. Have fun!
