Hiya
I'm a newbie who stumbled onto this site while loking for photography days out at WHF. What a find!!!! Spent about 3 hours absorbing info so far.
I've had a Canon EOS 400D for a couple of years and am weaning myself off auto settings. Had to take the plunge while at an aquarium when autosettings were rubbish
scary to do but got some ok pics that I was happy with considering 
Trying to learn more and to understand what impact the different settings have on photos. Play around with settings but don't understand it all at present - hopefully one day it will all click. Seen some threads with advice for books etc so will check those out.
Like to take pics of wildlife and also martial arts. Struggling a bit with the martial arts ones trying to get clear photos that aren't blurred with movement and allow in enough light - any advice appreciated!
Hopefully I'll bite the bullet at some point and post some pics in the hopes of getting feedback and tips.
Also hoping to join in on some of the meets
