Welcome to the community ! I'm also a nature lover so I hope you will share some photos of your beautiful scenery there!
A couple of hints from a not-quite-as newbie:
Remember to use as many tags (up to 5) as apply, since your stuff will be posted under a separate topic for each tag. Also, try to include #minnowsunite in all of your posts in order to get your stuff in front of other not-quite-as newbies and some of the more influential folks here who like to give a leg up to a newbie now and again.
Best of luck!
