Total novice to this photography lark so cant give any technical tips (but the ones on here are superb so thanks guys) so my suggestions are more practical and based on what's helped me enjoy photography
Take photos of the things you love, don't worry about what is marketable or fashionable - when you have hundreds of pics to go through or edit its not much fun if the subject matter means nothing to you
Take lots of pictures, as a novice I find out of a 100 there may be one that I can use if for nothing else then to help me hone my editing skills (took 480 before I got this one fairly usable one on Sat)
Talk to other photographers when your out and about, I haven't met one yet that isn't so excited about the hobby that they are not willing to talk you through technical details or help make suggestions
Don't be frightened to ask for help or advice on forums such as this, and never be frightened to say - hang on explain it in non technical terms to a novice ! - many experienced photographers sometimes forget how technical they talk :)
Talk to locals or if your in a park or on a beach etc then people around you, many love to tell you the best spots for views, birds etc
Lastly - get out there and have fun !!

Hi, I'm very much a beginner to the world of DSLR's and photography although always appreciated the art behind it. I'm hoping this forum may be able to help a novice learn a little bit more of the technicalities of my cameras and getting the best out of themhttps://flickr.com/photos/126950712@N08/sets/72157649719258582 |
