Hello all, new here

[BH Photo/Art]

Hello, My name is Lee. I am 41. I just joined the forum. I have been doing photography as a hobby since I was in high school, and also working with photos digitally for about 10 years. I have many friends come to me to fix up pictures. I have used many different programs, but am starting to think I should learn one and totally stick to it. I just bought a new digital camera, and am anxious to learn about improvements I can make to my pics without to much manipulation. I have tried doing adjustments in the past, not knowing what I was doing, and was unhappy with the results. I hope to learn some new things here.
