Hello from St Petersburg Russia

Hello Forum
I found out about the site and forum after seeing links to it related to the D7000 which I have been interested in.
Reading some of the posts, I enjoyed the international flavor of opinions and courtesy displayed. I am an American who moved to St Petersburg Russia 8 years ago and the city, and its beauty reignited my interest in photography that had been dormant for over 20 years I got a D90 2 years ago when it came out, as my first DSLR after having a Canon A1 years ago. My modest budget for the camera ended up generating different priority list for personal expenses and have acquired a good collection of quality lenses.
My main interests are candids, dance clubs and event shooting, drama/ballet/ and jazz concerts, and architecture. The D90 has proven to be an excellent camera for these subjects and I have been very happy that I bought it despite knowing almost nothing about it at the time I bought it. I bought in entirely on feel, after entering the store prepared to buy another brand and model that disappointed me in feel and size seeing in the store for the first time in person.
