I want to take beautiful pictures...

I also like taking pictures and I really admire people who can take special pictures from most of ordinary people. if you want to be a photograper i suppose you better to take some training. it's really helpful. Mind you it's not cheap to be a photographer. Many costs would happen. I knew a boy who studied in the UK for being a photographer. at last he could not afford the study materials. I was in a blog by accident and the pictures in the blog are fantastic. I think it's from a professional photographer. if you want to know i can tell you the link.

You can start by searching the Internet. There are hundreds of sites that tells you almost anything about photography. Look for tutorials, familiarize yourself first with photography jargons and terminologies as you will encounter lots of them. Although photography is a very expensive hobby, you can start with simple gears and do-it-yourself stuff. Believe me, it's a lot easier now to start in photography compared to the film days. Technology makes it more affordable nowadays. I have been a photography hobbyist for more than two years now and got to earn from it as well. If you still could not find your way in the Internet, just pm me and I'll be more than willing to share the great sites to start and understand photography.
