I would like to thank all you lovely people for the beautiful photos you show on this forum.
However, I now have two problems.
Problem number 1 is that after viewing all the pics of north Scotland, I am know feeling very homesick. I understand that there nothing any of you can do about this, so we will leave it for the moment.[lol]
Problem number 2 is that I now have an overwhelming urge to take up photography myself.
This leads to another problem – I don’t have the first idea how one takes good photo’s.
This is where you lot come in.
I believe I have a half decent camera, namely a Fujifilm FinePix E500 digital camera.
The owners manual seems to tell me that I can use it in automatic mode, semi-automatic and manual. It then goes on to talk about shutter priority, aperture priority and loads of other stuff of which I don’t understand a word.
Could any of you out there suggest a book, something like Photography for Dummies or similar that could sort of give me a kick start?:)
