Newbie from deep south texas - 12-14-2007, 08:32 PM


Hello ya'll! I'm new to the forum. I'm from the Rio Grande Valley, McAllen to be exact. Thanks to texas hillbilly from flickr I've discovered this forum. I'm a college student, and I just took a photography class over at my university. I have a Pentax K100D as my main camera and a Pentax MX as my "back-up," although the main reason why I got the MX is coz of my photography class. I'm a beginner in photography - started about 13 months ago with a Sony H5.

I'm looking forward to fun times here on the forum. If anybody is from the RGV please drop a reply to my post.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Welcome - and since I too live in McAllen (as well as having an association with that university you mentioned), it would be fun to get together. We all hope you're a regular on the TPF.

@Angelo, thanks for the welcome. I'm looking forward to learning a lot from this forum, considering that I'm very interested in photography.

@Hanky, howdy.

@Deanna, thanks for the welcome. I've checked your website out and you've got some nice photos in there. You are lucky to have a photo store in your city. haha.

@xseption, thanks for the welcome. It sure ain't little corner.. a lot of nice folks in here.

@Comanche, thanks for the welcome. I'm glad someone from McAllen frequents the forum. By association you mean a photography group? Had Sanders for my photo as an artform class.. I bet you know her.

Again, thanks a lot for the welcome.
