Got myself a new DSLR recently, Nikon D5000. That one decision has set me on the road to learning photography and mastering my camera. And its turning out to be quite an awesome journey.
It's the same for all things, when you attempt to learn something new, you go through a journey.
From the exciting beginnings, to the confusion and desperation, to the sudden insights and then the feeling of content, only to realize that there's so much more that you didn't know and that there's so much more that could make a lot of difference. This journey never ends.
I look at those pros, and think, damn when will I ever be able to take snaps like them. But I know I have something in me. I know that when I read these articles and rules on how to take good snaps and realize that I already knew these things intuitively. Nobody had told me these things and yet I knew. It feels really great when you see that what you always knew, is mentioned down as a rule for other people to learn.
I take my camera along everywhere I can. Every week I learn something new. I think at this point in time I know most of the things. And its more practice that's going to lead me higher.
No, I don't just want to take pictures for fun. I want to take pictures that will blow your mind away. Make you say "Wow!"
Am not there yet, but that's the journey am on.

The best thing to do is to join a course..u learn things way faster..and theres always someone to clarify ur doubts..
Other than that, get basics from online tutorials..and then read up Understanding exposure by Bryan Peterson..that book's awesome! :-)
