I bought my first Nikon 4 years ago, it's a D5000 I've been taking thousands of photos since then. I love taking pictures of my kids, pets, the sky and clouds, flowers on my property, just about anything I can. I am still learning something new every time I take a photo. Feed back from other Photographers is most important to me. There is always someone better then me out there and the knowledge and experience is something that i take very serious. In fact, anyone's opinion on my photos are taken very seriously.
