Beginning of Portraits Photography

This is my very first post for this blog. I would write most about this site on people and things that I capture through my portrait lens. I am just a beginner with photography though not a profession by any means. This is likely more of my passion and hobby that I want to share and grow with. I am excited to write things about what I learn as a beginner about this field or photography itself. I don't have any degree or background of this sort. This is I think perfect for any new student or a beginner like me who just got a Dslr and trying to experiment the wonderful things that it can create.

I am using my very first DSLR which is a Nikon D80 that I purchased November of 2008. The package was with the kit lens 18-55mm. With one year experience using the camera, I have my share of many failures. The exposure, focus, subjects and background wasn't that great. Most likely I had just been using auto mode. From the time I had seen and read many articles from different photographers and artists November 2009 onwards, I started to tweak my camera. Now it's almost a year. I still haven't got the best photograph I could be proud of. This blog is perfect to jot down all the progress I have with this coming months. I am crossing my fingers to be good in my passion. Goodluck to me!
