Hello!
I recently bought my first DSLR as a Christmas present to myself
. K-S1 with kit 18-55 lens and also just purchased Pentax DA 50mm lens. I've already learned quite a bit from many of you and have been reading up on lens/accessory reviews. Looking to get an inexpensive flash unit and telephoto zoom lens next. I've enjoyed seeing some of your pictures and want to start voting in the photo contests as well. My main motivation is to improve my photography skills before my wife and I go on our first Europe trip (Germany & Italy) next summer. My level is definitely beginner. Here's a view of Madison's lake Monona from this weekend. It's bitter cold!
Thanks all for your welcome to the forum!
