An Introduction with Hassan

I'm Hassan Faghihi, and I'm about 30 years old, and I'm also a Full Stack Developer.
It was 3 year back, and before our new year eve, that my sister and her husband came to my city, due to some theft, stolen her husband camera, he just wanted to get a new one, that i stick to him, and we went shopping...

That was the time that i asked the shop keeper if he knew any good DSLR, i was interested in long exposure, although i didn't knew the technique, i heard it at some point years back, and i was interested and i just knew the name "DSLR" ...

So he hand catalog full of Nikon and Canon camera, and offered the Nikon D3200 for about a million and two hundred thousand in my currency...

It was the second year that i worked as professional programmer, and newly i just received the money i owned from my last boss which he didn't gave at that time due to some circumstances, plus the money i received for my wage, and new year eve, i sum it up, and hand it straight over, and he take a Canon super zoom "DSLR like" camera.

I was happy and i took image from everything, as with my personality i start with the menu, and somehow learn it, it wasn't complex as D7200 (my second and last until today camera) or other, everything was somehow self explanatory, but i just didn't knew about how to handle a camera what is there in to it, what is aperture or how aperture is different from ISO (though i hear about them long ago when i was just a kid), The cost of what i bought was about the double of the other camera cost... so my sister was like, well take a picture from me, and told her husband too, and start saying things like: look at the color, our camera came cheaper yet take picture ways better than yours, and stuff.

Due to my like-hood about long exposure and knowing it is about how to manually control the camera, I start searching for what may be out there, reading blogs, watching tutorial, and Etc... some how i become master of my camera settings... But there still was a long way, about how to capture a better shot, how to control and have better light, how to pose... "hey how should i stay?" they asked, "well, i know how to control my camera" i replayed, "But i know nothing about posing, I don't own modeling agency" so I start searching for that too... today, I still have long way to go, and due to my limitation, I have less time to practice or participate in photography, but life is going on, as i am, and i wish to deliver more meaningful images, that i did to today.

Thank you for reading,
Hassan F.
