Thanks mate. I know it`s nothing exciting, but it`s a start and they were only sitting a couple of feet from me.

It takes guts to post your first but now you have that out of the way just shoot whatever you can and enjoy

It was a tad daunting posting, but like you say: The first one`s out of the way now.

Thanks Gazza......... You should, you should It`s a very nice camera to handle.

Nice picture! Have a look HERE for how Ken Rockwell reckons you should set the camera up for optimum results.

It's really easy to follow and I have my D40 set up as he recommends (given my lack of knowledge to the contrary).

Nice photo, Paulie, for DSC_0001.

Ken Rockwell comes with a health warning. He has some useful stuff on his site, but some is just his opinion (to be fair, he does state this in his "About Me") and may not work for you. He likes his photos very warm and (over)saturated, which may or may not be to your taste.

Have a read of the FAQ on how to embed and link your flickr photos. You'll get more views that way. And post lots more photos

First time with flickr too (as you might have guessed). Cheers for the pointers.
