    Default Hello from the uk

    Hi

    My name is Iain. I came across this forum by chance and have not been able to stop reading it since.
    I have always had a keen interest in wildlife especially birds and have always dabbled in photography.

    I have recently decided to put a lot more effort into my bird photography but have never really had any feedback on my images.
    It is a bit daunting to see the quality of images on the site but at least I know any critique I get should be correct.

    I am looking forward to being an active member of this forum and will hopefully start posting images soon.

    Welcome to BPN, Ian! You certainly came to the right place to learn. I know posting images for critique can be daunting at first, but rest assured we don't bite. Our Eager to Learn forum is a good place to start posting in. I would also like to encourage you to post critiques on other people's images too. You'll find that to be an excellent way to learn how to improve your own photography. Looking forward to your participation here and seeing your photos.
    God Bless

    Iain:

    A big welcome to BPN! Chris had a good suggestion on starting in Eager to Learn, excellent critiques, slightly more relaxed style.

    Look forward to your posts.

    Cheers
