Good Day to all mylotter I just want to ask for some advise because I want to be nature photographer I know its not that easy because.
So I want to ask to be a nature photographer what would be the best thing to do in the first place should I take a picture of nature and start posting it in my blog or do I need to prefer something and do I need to do something?
What is it and do I need, I know I need a camera but is there a Deep meaning of being nature photographer.
I just want to be nature photographer because I love taking photos and most I take is our nature and I notice every day our nature changes and get destroy every single minutes.
I just want to take photos of it before it will totally destroy and it can't be called nature anymore.

I'm writing from an amateur's point of view. As much as I love photography I'm at least glad it remains one of my best loved hobbies. It may be more of a trial and error. But over the years I've captured lots of photographs in my attempt to show the beauty of the human spirit to the world around me as well as nature. I normally take a few shots of the same subject if I could. The more the shots the better it would be. And I try not to impose my feelings or my perceptions on the subject but rather as what it is. I try to look out for anything that is unique when I compare one shot from the other. That uniqueness is to me the essence of my subject. I normally use a simple digital camera. And in that way I get to delete or edit the lightings.

I am glad that there are also like me who love photography here in mylot community, yes you are right its really a trial and error except for me I think its always error in mine situation 
but I still pursue it,
I also use digital well I still A beginner so I still need to practice my photography skill before I take on a DSLR.
I should also try what you do in photography and also from the others advice, I think I am going to do some experiment base on all the advices I get in my discussion and hopefully I could publish it on internet as soon as possible.
by next week I guess I going to finish my little community for different groups I hope you join in, I going to make a group for newbie and pro photographer and let them expose their work on the community to be seen by lots of people around the world.
Have a great day.

im not that good... most of the pictures that i take are for personal use only.. but my freinds told me i am quite good for someone who doesnt have a formal learning.. i haven't attended any workshops or seminar... my advices are..
1. read your manual
2. use tripod or monopod
3. have a remote to avoid any movements
4. for nature photography... take pictures 30 mins before and after sunrise and sunset..
5. be patient
6. use filters if needed
good day everyone!!
:)

i started off taking pictures of flowers and animals with my cell phone but i have a nikon camera now and i sell them through digital download sites, quite amazing actually, to be a great nature photographer you have to have a keen eye on things, and you know what is a good shot and what isnt, you get lucky and sometimes not, thats life, take hundreds of photos a week and pick the best ones to stick on a website, thats the best way to go if ur a beginner like me

Maybe this can help you choose.
For nature, it can be divided into 2, scenery and wildlife. either one will influence your choice of equipment. So you've to look into yourself which is your preference.
