NEW MEMBER? Please Introduce Yourself Here
Hello!
We are very pleased you decided to join us.
Why not take a few minutes to briefly introduce yourself as a new member, but please do not post images for comment in this thread - it's just for introductions. You are welcome to post one image to demonstrate your photography style.
It can be confusing joining a new forum. The following information may help you in getting established here. We know you want to get started, but reading this will help you get started properly.

We always try to do that in a fair, polite, and balanced manner. We also have a lot of fun on here, making humorous comments with one another. But again, it's nearly always done in a friendly manner, softened with the use of smilies.

Hello all - I'm from New Hampshire (USA) Received an BA in Art (Photography) back in the 70's - film/darkroom. At 72 I'm about to retire to my favorite hobbies - woodworking and photography. Been using a Sony a6000 for a few years, just bought a Sony a7RIV - use Skylum software...can't wait to have more time to learn - all over again! Looking forward to interacting and learning from everyone.

Hi there "Pappyb",
Welcome to the CiC forums from me, we are a friendly bunch and usually address each other on first name terms, so it would be helpful to supply that info when posting - which I hope won't be too long coming.
I'm not personally a Sony shooter myself (Nikon DSLR, Canon compacts), but we have several experienced members who are Sony and they all regard them highly.
Kind regards,
Dave

Hi Dan,
Thanks for the PM, which I replied to a little earlier.
It took me a while to summon the courage to participate here, but I got there eventually, albeit many years ago now (yikes).
Warm welcome to the CiC forums from me,
Dave

Welcome to the CiC forums Martine,
As said to Pappyb a couple of posts ago, I do shoot Canon, preferring their compacts to Nikon's, even though I chose that brand for my DSLR.
I hope we see some of your photos here soon,
Dave
Re: NEW MEMBER? Please Introduce Yourself Here
Hi, I'm a amateur photographer, shooting mostly floral and closeup work. I've just picked up a set of Vivitar Extension Tubes AT-3 for my Nikon D7000. Can anyone shed some light on how to use these non-AI non-AF devices on my Nikon? Thanks

Hi Dan, welcome to CiC.
Your reference to night photography reminded me that a number of years ago there was at least one lengthy thread dedicated to night/dark photography. After a few minutes hunting, I found it: https://www.cambridgeincolour.com/fo...ighlight=night .
Unfortunately many but not all of the photos in that thread are no longer accessible. That's because many of us used to use the now defunct Tinypics for posting photos.
