s_k- Awe, you're very kind! Thank you so much! I will definitely have to take you up on that offer! I've been reading 'Understanding Exposure' by Bryan Peterson (and I have a few other books, can't recall the names off my head). But there are definitely questions that a book just doesn't quite answer. They've helped, certainly, but I'm pretty much winging it right now, lol. I can keep talking about photography forever so I'll stop now, ha ha
Vanilla- Hi Vanilla! Yes, that's me in my avatar. Not terribly creative (w/ my avatar or my username, lol), especially compared to all these interesting avatars I've noticed around here.
Goblin Tears- Thank you very much for the welcome!
I agree, people here do seem very nice/funny. I like it.
