I like a wide range of subjects from buildings, people and scenery. For me it is attempting to capture the moment, but in a unique way - how about you?

This forum is great in that there is a wide range of abilities and people are so generous in sharing their knowledge. Perhaps you want to consider wandering around the blogs and forum discussions to pick up ideas.

I started out taking pictures wildlife and landscapes. I then decided to branch out and started to do some portrature and street photography. I just love taking pictures, if i think it looks good and excites me then I'll snap it. I tend to take pictures for myself and if other people like it then it's a bonus.

What Camera are you using and what lenese do you have?

Based on the spelling of the title I thought this thread might be about photographing nudes.

The 3200 with kit lens is a great camera/lens combination. 

 

My advice is to keep it with you and just take pictures of everything and everyone you see that looks like it/they might be the slightest bit interesting. Then at the end of the day, sit down and look at what you have. 

 

You might be surprised.

I just thought it was you foreigners deciding to spell another English word incorrectly! :P

I tend to stick to nature photography (mostly birds),but if I see something that would make a good photo I'll give it a shot.Sometimes you find things at the odd times I admit. ie. shooting an icicle melting. I also find my cat  to be very photogenic, which gives me some good stuff to mess around with in ps.

I try everything but what I really enjoy is photographing people. Not posed.

 started off with a D3100 with 18-55 kit lens. Since then I've grown as a photographer and now use a D7100 and have built my lens collection. As Alden said, your D3200 is a great camera and should help you take fantastic photos. The kit lens are great too, I still use mine and get some fantastic pictures with it.
