    Default Hello I am new to the site.

    Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas. I am new to the site, just got approved to be part of the community and looking forward to leaning many more things into the future. I got into photography about eight years ago after seeing Bald Eagles in the St Louis area. All I had was a point and shoot which was frustrating. So my adventure began--totally self taught by making many mistakes and reading everything I can get my hands on.

    I have attached one of my favorite Bald Eagle pictures as my intro. It was taken at Horseshoe Lake State Park, near Granite City, IL. Hope you like it and look forward to the interaction of this forum.

    Welcome Perry! There is so much to learn here. Most of us are self taught so no worries,.... we learn from each other. Jump in and share your shots on the forums.

    Welcome to BPN Perry! Yep, self-taught here too...but I sure wish a place like BPN existed when I first started! Posting and critiquing is a great way to learn and grow as a nature photographer.....
