I have had my camera for almost two years, and I still need to learn much more. I never had a point and shoot, so when I went digital, I went from the Nikon F100 to the D300. I bought Thom Hogan's ebook, which I found much easier to read than the manual. They're not expensive, and you probably will find it worthwhile. I can help gather information on histograms over this weekend, if you want. I do think they are very useful, but I haven't mastered them much. This is one of those things in the digital world that I don't know at a great depth. I learn quickly and like to be able to help others, so if you want me to get something started, let me know. I did use darkrooms, and I loved it. I am a perfectionist, so I spent many hours in the darkroom trying to get things just right. I am more of a purist, and I'm not crazy about the idea of manipulating reality, unless it's for the sake of art, so photoprocessing that alters the scene or events to a great extent doesn't interest me. Once I figure out how to attach a picture to a thread, I will show you pictures of Ashley. Our life revolves around taking care of her. We take her to see her doctor at least every two months to make sure that we are doing everything she needs to keep her healthy. She still walks a couple of miles a day, and would walk longer if I wasn't so protective. She still runs around, plays, and acts like a baby, but she gets tired more easily. Her doctor is amazed at how fast she is. He is Chinese, and he is referred to as The Miracle Vet. He uses holistic medicine, does acupuncture, comes up with the formulas for the herbs that he and other vets use, and has cured so many dogs whose doctors told their owners that their dogs had no hope for survival. He also uses conventional medicine, and I trust him completely. You can PM me at any time if you have any questions or post them here.
