Hello Elements Village (It Takes a Village to Grow Successfully),

Hardly new to photography, 38 years ago I bought my first SLR, but the digital age began for me with a Canon in 2002. Now using a Panasonic, I upgraded my Microsoft Digital Image software to Elements. The learning curve was steep enough to require "A Missing Manual" and a forum safety net.

My 15 Minutes Of Fame were highlighted with a 5 year shift as a wedding photographer. Those days of Honeywell Strobe Lights, 2 1/4 Square Film, and no preview until the proofs came back seem like the Stone Age.

Anyways, today my travel photos occupy most of my creative juices, and I look forward to sharing problems and successes with all of you.

Bill

Welcome to the forum from a former Pittsburgh area native. I grew up in the New Brighton/Beaver Falls area before moving to NC 16 years ago. But I am still a Steeler Fan!!!! Lots of us down here. :D
