Hello From Washington

Greetings all! I'm a college guy living in washington state, US, and have loved taking pictures since I was a young lad, aka the days of my poor dismayed father getting double prints of my film only to discover young me thought his toy camera had the ability to resolve water droplets on flowers an inch a way, sorry dad!
By pure luck and a bit of trial and error I think I've learned a little since then; my images are now mostly in focus!
Now days I'm shooting a nikon d5200 and landscape photography is my favorite. I look forward to seeing and sharing with you ladies and gents, cheers :)
 
Thanks for the welcome Hamish! I'll post some soon.

I'm not sure actually. I was talking about that little camera last night actually, I'll have to see if I still have it somewhere. It was a blue-ish green and had literally just a shutter button, advancing dial and a rewinding dial on the bottom. Oh and it had a little lens cover built in with a toggle under that slid a cover over the lens, or into the body when you were ready to take pictures. Yes I occasionally forgot this step as a youngster haha.
 
Welcome Matthew, nice to see another US member on RPF
 
Thanks for the welcome guys! A warm welcome, some excellent photographers, and not having to deal with that silly screen-name picking business, I say I like this place already :)
