Hi everybody! Just joined this site which I was reccommended at a course I’m doing at the Institute Of Photography, Dublin. I’ve only been taking photographs for about a year, first with a compact camera (Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS5) and from mid December 2009 I started shooting with a Canon EOS Rebel XSi/EOS 450D which I was lucky enough to receive as a birthday gift! That’s all my equipment, apart from a tripod.
I’ve done a Beginners course in the Institute of Photography and I’m doing an Improvers course at the moment. I am from Spain (Madrid) but have been living in Dublin for 20 years now!! I am really enjoying photography and I wonder how I went all those years without it!
I have a Flickr account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/estherlairlandesa/” onclick=”window.open(this.href);return false;
I’m looking forward to contacting other local photographers through this site and to share experiences and tips. I hope to learn lots in this way!
Here’s a photo which I took yesterday at St Stephen’s Green and which I’m extremely happy with! It was taken from the bridge over the pond at St Stephen’s Green. Photo details:
