Hello from Canada

Gallery: NPN PhotographersPosted November 24, 2012202 views10 comments
Hi,
i'm a new member here, my name is Steeve Marcoux (some might know me as Leopold on some Pentax forums). I've been taking photos for the last 25 years but have taken it more seriously during the last 2 or 3 years.
I like to take photos of anything in the natural world but i prefer Close-up/Macro. You will see next summer that i like taking frog photos!

I'm including a photo of me while i was photographing frogs.

Hi Steve, and welcome. I'm a fellow Pentaxian. :smile:

This is a nice composition, and what really makes it is how turned the tables and got the frog behind the camera to take your picture! (just kidding) :wavey:

I've not yet been able to take a picture of a frog -- they are so skiddish -- and I'm looking forward to learning from you how to do it.

Hi Steeve, welcome to NPN. This is a great group with people who give honest and sincere critiques. Looking forward to your photos. I remember seeing the "best kept secret" article in OPC not so long ago. Congrats.
