I’m a newcomer to this site myself. I’ve found many interesting articles about photography in its pages, as well as received comments and suggestions to my own images in its forums. Nice site to learn and share about photography. So:
a) Welcome;
b) Whether it was 40 years ago or not, the basics and most important remains the same – f-stop, shutter speed, composition, light and colour – the rest, with time, you´ll see it’s peanuts;
c) Happy shooting!
