Re: New forum and EOS M3 user saying Hi !

That's just a tester folks ...... I'll upload in the appriate sections when ready, as I have a few questions. I know the image doesn't look great right now, and I shouldn't of put my shoddy work on flickr just yet ( but the image does have potencial ), and I'm still trying to get the feel of things. I've now got Lightroom 6 and installed the Nik plugins ...... so my images will truly convey what I actually pictured and the mood I wish to portray.
I've read many posts on here ( and other forums ), ( I think they reguard themselves as 'purists' ) that's all very fine if that's what they believe ...... and who am I to disagree ! but having worked in darkrooms in the late 70's and early 80's I understand the work that needs to be done in order to create that perfect print. There's no getting away from it, a perfect image has to be processed. Nowdays it's not necessary to stand in near darkness for hours on end to process a print ........ bits of cardboard stuck to little lengths of wood ! now I can comfortably sit at my desk and twiddle sliders all day long !
Many thanks for all your help ladies and gents.
