Finally I made it to this site... sadly I had to use my son's name instead of my own which wasn't excepted.
My name is Xander Sales and I live in Bennekom, the Netherlands.
At a very young age I spent time in nature with my dad. Because of him, I love nature... He thought me everything and also about photography.
He had his own lab and lot's of camera stuff, so I spent a lot of time watching his photos and I played with his camera.
When I started working I had to buy my own... first Minolta and now I'm using Nikon-gear!
My favourite nature subject is birds! I love birds... all their colours, sizes, songs, etc.
I hope I can learn from at site. I want to learn more to create a better photo!
Welcome to BPN Xander!! Glad you found your way here...this is the best site to help you learn how to improve at your hooby. Judging by your photo it looks like you already know the basics, very nice!
I'm not sure why you weren't able to use your own name...perhaps you could send a private message (PM) to either Chris Ober or James Shadle to see if they can fix that for you.
Big welcome to BPN, Xander! This is a great place to learn. The photo you've posted is gorgeous. Hopefully, James Shadle or Chris Ober can help you change your username to your own name.
