What perks/skills are people going for?

I've been playing mainly one-armed/shield so far, although I am unsure whether to go for axes, maces or swords (or all 3). I've tended to use axes so far as the damage stat is higher but have no idea how well that's balanced with weapon speed (swords are fastest; maces slowest but with mid-level damage) and with the perks (bleed for axes, AP for maces and crit for swords).

Looking at the perk trees, the ones that grab me are the quality of life/utility ones from archery (zoom, slow time); heavy armour (weightless armour) and sneaking (muffle armor, running has less effect on stealth) as I use all those skills a lot. Having block stop arrows and reduce magic damage also sounds good for me.

Anyone got any tips on magic? I've tended to avoid it so far except for healing after combat.

Also how do you get started on enchanting? I used to know this for Morrowind/Oblivion, but now I find myself staring at these soul gems I keep looting and don't know where to begin.
