I purchased my first camera, a Pentax K1000 SE (SE = Special Edition - brown instead of black), with pennies saved/earned around 16 years of age. Unfortunately, despite a couple different 35mm film cameras and a few different digitals cameras in my past, the photos I capture are still a bit less than artistic. Now nearing retirement, with the prospect of time available, I hope to be able to finally apply myself to practicing the "art" of photography.

I have owned my R6 for a few years now, but am still a bit clumsy with the settings. Canon's intermittent sales have successfully tempted me into far too many RF lens purchases. So, I am fully equipped except for the skill to fully utilize that equipment. Lurking on this forum for several months has already improved my shooting, so it seems weird that I have not joined the forum before today.

Thanks everyone for all you have already shared.
 
Welcome to the forum! You have come to the right place. There are some great photographers here (not me), and they are very generous with sharing their experiences and wisdom. This place is an education for me everyday day. Be sure to share your photos!
