I've been doing photography for about a year now. I never took classes, but I'm hoping to do it this year. I've been using my digi cam by now, but my dad also got me a film SRL. I know the basics about it, but I really want to learn more.

For me, photography is the best way I have for expressing myself. I love showing people things they don't normally see. It makes me feel good about myself, when I take a picture and I love the way turned out, no matter what other people think about it.
I've also found out that it's great to escape from everyday problems, you know, it's just you and your camera, nothing else matters.

I'd love to see everybody's photos, maybe we could post some in this thread
