Hi Guys,
Well, I treated myself to a Canon 600D a few weeks back. All I can say is that I've got the bug! :love: I've bought some new and second hand glass to give me a total focus range of 17mm to 400mm over my 3 main lenses. I'll be receiving my first L lens in the form of a 70-200mm non-IS in the next couple of days. This will complement my 2 Sigmas, 17-70 f2.8 and 120-400mm. I've not really used all the lenses in anger yet although I been down to the viewing park at Manchester airport with the 120-400 a few times. I'm always on the look out for more photo opportunities so if anybody knows anywhere worth going to in the north west and north wales, let me know. I'm quickly realising that this will be a very expensive yet very enjoyable hobby. Look forward to getting involved in the forum community. :)
 
Hi Iain, and welcome to the site. May I recommend Fort Perch Rock and New Brighton Lighthouse. I found that area quite nice for trying out my first DSLR.
 
Thanks Mick. Great suggestion. In fact I went down there when I first got the camera. Got some really nice shots as the light was behind me and the skyline over Liverpool was almost pitch black! I think i'll nip back down there when my 70-200 4L arrives I think.
