Hello from little Rhody

[Hali Sowle]

Hi All! My name is Hali and I'm a photoholic. I'm an "advanced" amateur photographer with some delusions of grandeur. I love to shoot nature and wildlife although I'm always up to a city walk and cityscapes. I've been shooting on and off for 25 years a lot more in the last 7 years since I bought a Canon 20D. I'm now up to a 7D and a 5DMII with a bunch of lenses, the latest of which is a MP-E 65mm macro. I'm looking forward to learning and sharing what I know.

Hi Hali
Welcome to the forum ... "Advanced ameture with delusions of grandeur" ... Love it!
Looking forward to seeing some shots ... Especially from the mpe, I can barely get anything half ok from a normal macro lens, so I'm always impressed when people get good shots out of kit like that!

Hey there, Hali!
Just joined myself and so far so good. I also shoot with the 7D and have for a few years. I'm a slow learner but having a ball doing it. I look forward to seeing your work!

Welcome Hali. I am sure that you will have a wonderful time here especially with those of us that have given up all hope of weening ourselves from the habit, err I mean hobby.
