I am originally from China mainland, I landed into Boston, MA at 2003. I owned a very old film camera before I really into photography in 2005. Canon 30D and a sidekick Canon SD700 IS are my main toys lately.
Last week I got an new 70-200mm f/4 L USM lens and it happened to be a bait to know about OPF, the story is that when I first time tried my new lens at Boston ICA yesterday, Asher showed up with his Canon 5D and told me about OPF, nice meeting!

I mainly post my photos at flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/qihuizhang/, meanwhile I maintain my chinese blog that hosts some pictures as well. I'm interested in landscape, portraits, and pictures post-processes with PS, Lightrooms and etc.

hope I can learn whatever about photography here, and share my tips. looking forward to meeting photographers here and maybe hang out taking pictures around Boston area?!

I've no way to control if the translation were good…

Was just a way to try a different welcome!

QiHui,

I seem to have missed welcoming you! I have just visited your Flikr gallery of Boston. It seems like some pictures were taken by the Charles River?

The trees and flowers are magnificent. I like your use of limited depth of focus in the tulip pictures. So fine, the flowers and tree are great. However, something else seems to distinguish your work and I have not yet got a hang of it. I see it in the many pictures of the outside of buildings showing flower boxes, light reflecting on windows an d textures of different stone. You do seem to choose a characteristic of light on buildings that seems to be present in a lot of pictures. I may be reflecting on something very simple like you only take pictures after 5 pm or something equally banal.

Anyway, welcome if I didn't express it elsewhere and if I did, then a double welcome! I hope your pictures will get posted so we can discuss them!

Asher
