Re: hi

Hi Pete

warm welcome to you I've had my DSLR for just over a year now. I ended up not buying a book, but using the internet and this site for info instead. Books are great but most basic stuff in on the net, eg you can put in a google for exposure, nature photography, night photography... endless. You can spend your cash on equipment then instead

I got help from a few members. Have you optimised the photos for the web - 72ppi and checked the size?
