Bravely stepping in...

January 6th, 2012
Hello everyone,
I'm very nervously stepping into this arena. Have pretty much zero photography skills, a not-very-good basic camera, and no time in my life for another project :-) But it excites me to know what I could learn from all you wonderful people and what this interest might perhaps become. And I'd love to remind myself of the many blessings I have in life, and taking photos can do that I think. So a little late starting in 2012 but here I am.

Me? Australian mother of 4 kids, working part time as a teacher of English language. I'd love any comments, criticism even. Just need to learn what my crappy camera is still capable of ;-)

@tulipgirl welcome. I see you are perfect for this.

Crappy camera - check.
zero skills - check
no time - check

Just remember the camera is just the tool, the creativity comes from within.

Me. I have also just started my 356 project after putting it off for a few years. I take a lot of photos, but I don't take them daily so this should be a bit of a challenge for me.

Welcome! Your 'qualifications' sound spot on to me! Just keep your camera with you as much as possible! Oh and have fun! X
