Welcome from California

Hellow fellow Pentaxians,

I have been lurking on this forum for quite some time and thought it was about time I introduced myself.

I live in beautiful northern California, which provides plenty of opportunities for me to get out and do my two favorite things: backpacking and photography.

Got back into photography about 2 years ago and picked up a K-5, this has been a fabulous camera and I have learned so much. I am still finding things in camera that I never thought I would need but now totally love (intervalometer!). In addition to outdoor photography I have been trying out photographing events, I find this to be very challanging as it often involves using a flash (which I struggle with) and interacting with people (sometimes I get uncomforatable going up to strangers) but has been a great learning experience.

Lots of great advice on this forum, looking forward to being a part of the community!

Cheers,

Adam
