    Hello from LawnGuyLand!

    Recently decided to take my photography a little more seriously - again. Nearing retirement in several years, and this is a good addition to the mix of activities. Was active as a kid, then dropped it when other things got in the way. Began my photog interest using my father's old Argus C-3. Still sitting here on a shelf.

    SO here I am - ready to relearn. As of now, all I am using is a 2 MEg Digital point & shoot. But I've done some oretty good things with it, and hope to learn my way around to accomplish more.

    THanks for the welcome. BUT - I am NOT a New Yawker. I've only been here 25 years. I am, like you, a Philadelphian! I miss my hoagies & Cheesesteaks, the Phillies, Society Hill & Rittenhouse Square.

    Smile Welcome aboard Coachgns!

    This is one of the friendlier websites out there. Well, OK, the friendliest website out there for photographers. There is photo.net, but they tend to be a little elitist. This site is very friendly and has very colorful characters. You'll love it here even if all you do is lurk silently ;) Welcome aboard! Share your photos too

    Lurk Silently? ME?

    I am a very active poster in other Boards I frequent, primairly baseball & cruising. I expect I'll be the same here.
