        Hi everyone ,

        My Name is Pat ,  47 years young and i live in N.ire.

        Brand new to photography but always had an interest in visual arts – I  do have some time using photoshop for making some personal Art and Graphic images with wacom tablet.

        Have owned my first camera for about 2 weeks LUMIX FZ1000, Just received a set of 3 filters from hoya ,UV, CP, NDx8 and and tripod .

        My main focus is landscapes – fine art  really does it for me.

        Right now i am learning about my camera  and taking as much info i can from lots of sources online , i never knew it could be so enjoyable & enjoyable.

        Nice to say hello once again thanks for your time … speak soon .

          Hi there Pat, welcome to our place! I’m sure you’ll have a lot of fun with your camera, and that ND filter sounds really cool. Here you can read a bit more on them so you can start figuring out your own filter: https://www.lightstalking.us/quick-guide-to-understanding-nd-filters/

          Please feel free to ask stuff to any of us as you please!

                Hi Jasenka , thank you for warm welcome.

                May i ask regarding posting images , do you have a pref on image ,  ie Edited or straight from camera without any edits for giving advice.

                Thanks once again.

                  @patrickw Hi Pat, welcome to the forums. Good to know about your interests and what you are learning at the moment. Look forward to seeing some of your works.

                  If you don’t mind me answering your question to Jasenka, we do not have preference on images. It is your choice. You can post what you think is the best version of your image. I am assuming you will be shooting raw, so some post processing will be involved to bring out the details in the image 🙂

                    Hello Dahlia

                    Much thanks for your welcome , Raw yes although at this current time i only have photoshop and everything i have been reading suggest adobe LR is the way to go for post process  , PS can do it but maybe a little more fiddly ( i think ) ?

                    My wallet took a kickin this month 😉 i will be sure to get my Lightroom sorted a.s.a.p

                    Nice to chat and thank you for the advice , cheers.
