Hello from Long Island, NY

Hello all,

I've been lurking here for a bit reading, observing, and absorbing. I finally decided to step out of the shadows and jump on in. The only problem is that I don't have the camera.....yet. My new (to me) K100D will be here early next week.

This seems to be a great forum with some really friend (and knowledgable) poster. I'm looking forward to interacting and getting caught up with the world of DSLR photography.

See ya in the forums!

Welcome. I'm fairly new here also and I'm a fellow Pentaxian. This is great place to hang out. I was raised on the Island but that's another story.

Thanks for the welcome! I'm glad to be here. I don't know how much I'll be able to contribute, but I will take great pleasure in leeching as much info as I can.

I heard about a great arboretum on the north shore in Nassau County. There's a few LI folks on here... maybe we can organize a meet once the flowers are in bloom.

Maxwell,

Welcome, I'm sure you will enjoy your K100D. I like mine so much I just purchased a second one before they are all gone.

I'm pretty sure this is the place you're referring to: Planting Fields Arboretum State Historic Park and Coe Hall Is Located 1395 Planting Fields Road Oyster Bay, NY 11771

I've heard of it before, but I've never been there.

Thanx for that; I too only heard about it but didn't know anything more.
Ohhh, greenhouse, and Orchids are in bloom through mid-Feb. Might have to take the Voightlander there next weekend before they're gone...
