January 20th, 2013
A successful action shot selfie at the 53rd attempt was a sort of milestone

January 20th, 2013
My photo #500... which happened to be our 8 year wedding anniversary and day 76 of project #2!
January 20th, 2013
A milestone for 2 reasons. It was halfway through my 366 project and also it is a shot to commemorate the day I got the keys to my first home I actually own.
January 20th, 2013
@jase_h only 53 shots to get that is more than a milestone its more like a miracle, tell me you had a remote and it wasn't with a 10 second timer!
January 20th, 2013
@primitiveprobe beautiful tones and composition
January 20th, 2013
@jsorensenart No remote, 12 sec self timer
January 20th, 2013
@sam_cr congrats on both milestones
January 20th, 2013
@jsorensenart and a buggered hamstring the next day :)
January 20th, 2013
@hasselhotch Fantastic shot David, wonderful way to commemorate a huge day!

January 3rd was my 800th upload.....

and early morning light hit 101 favs today!!
January 21st, 2013
hey Jake... methinks your cup runneth over! this is a wonderful shot!
January 21st, 2013
Some shots are special because of the reception they receive. This one was Number 1 on TT for Week 100 which I was excited about. Funnily, in my stats it doesn't even appear in my Top Ten even though it is my second highest favorited shot. I have always been grateful for support and have never wanted to start threads to showcase a particular shot, although I have contributed to others. I guess I wanted to see how much a shot could achieve in terms of connecting with others by just being there on its visual impact. I would always be wondering otherwise...


@northy agree, think it is the most beautiful photo and a little disappointed will miss out on it. Sometimes our cups are never empty.

Learning the smoothing of the water and finally getting a decent pic:
January 21st, 2013
@peterdegraaff that's a gorgeous shot, Peter! funny you should mention the stats thing... my highest fav'd photo is there, but not 3 of my next 4 highests... one of which made the T20... go figure :)
January 21st, 2013
Sunrise over the Missisippi River with Samuel Clemens....one of my all time personal favorites.....and thank you all for it making the PP.

Halfway through my 1st year:


Last shot of my first year:


Halfway through the 2nd year:


And last shot of year 2:


They are not really my most stellar shots- but they are the milestones such as they may be!
January 21st, 2013
Well, this is my photo #20. Kind of a smaller milestone compared to everyone else's but I still feel like I have improved so much in just the last 20 days! All of the above photos are beautiful by the way!


January 21st, 2013
My 1 year :)

January 21st, 2013
Funny, mine was just last weekend and I was thinking of posting the same discussion. Choice!
January 21st, 2013
@peterdegraaff Peter the shot you posted is brilliant, you have posted some of my all time favorite shots on 365... of course the comment you posted with it comes across as both cocky and condescending which is a little disappointing
January 21st, 2013
@jsorensenart it is not intended to be. There is a legitimate post for threads but often those along the lines of "show me your" can have a cockiness which can be intimidating for others, and I hate to say can seem very manipulative and self promotional. Just saying...take it what ever way you want. This is possibly we some last year started threads of show me craptastic and worst.
January 21st, 2013
@peterdegraaff self promotional... sure... you do the same thing every time you post on a tread like this... Manipulative... wtf! and as for intimidating... we are all just people with cameras trying to get better at something we enjoy!
January 21st, 2013
@jsorensenart Got to say that I tend not to post on these threads that often, except the weekly favourite of your own and favourite of others, or the amusing ones. We all get a blast when occassionally somebody tells us they admire one of our photos. I guess that is the route I prefer to take. There have been lots of this kind of thread lately, and then others are out there who are getting upset that no one is looking at there photos. I guess that's why I like the threads that ask us to show the photos of another person or those who are less well known.
January 21st, 2013
@peterdegraaff In the 6 months I have been on 365 I have started 2 treads. One about National Parks and This one because I was happy about making the 6 month milestone. By the way you posted pics on both of those threads... I spend lots of time posting comments on other peoples pictures and trying to give positive feedback... anyway thanks for crapping all over me hope it makes you feel better
January 21st, 2013
@jsorensenart Jake I wasn't "crapping" over you and I think you know that. I think it is one of the most beautiful photos I have seen taken of Lake MacDonald and YOU took it. It is in fact one of the most beautiful winter photos I have seen. I feel very strongly that a photo as beautiful as the one you have taken should be allowed to stand on its on its own merits and it will. That takes time. That's all I am saying. I like others value the comments you make, and I probably don't comment enough at the moment. We all want to feel good about our photos, and, I don't want you to think that because I am expressing and feeling a frustration with the plethora of threads at the moment that it is perhaps about you. I think very highly of your creative spirits and energy.
January 21st, 2013
@peterdegraaff Truce, I completely respect your work and think that you bring a huge amount to the 365 community. And I do understand what you are saying about the plethora of threads, but that will sort itself out in time... Sometimes the planets aline and you get a shot that you are very proud of and you want everyone to see it, this shot lined up with a legitimate milestone of my half way point, which was the deciding factor of starting the tread. I think that we are both passionate people and the points have been made.
January 21st, 2013


I've been here so long its hard to determine exactly where half way was .... so this is #537 which is half way through my main album....
January 21st, 2013

January 21st, 2013


My first 365 shot, because it made me get my camera gear out of a very very dusty corner and make time in every day to do something I love. : )
January 21st, 2013
I'm currently at 150 images so here is my shot number 75 for my halfway point.



I was trying to recreate a Beaton/Hurrell style low key portrait but had no idea how to go about it. I'm much happier with the one I took last week as I now know what I should have done with the lighting on my initial picture.
January 21st, 2013
This photo I was most proud of. I had always wanted to try bokeh, and I got "Pushed" to do it. I was thrilling with the results!

January 22nd, 2013
First shot on 365


This is the first shot of my 2nd year:


and this is the first shot of my 3rd year which starts today:
January 22nd, 2013

And then this one was epic (a #1 and Theme winner in same week) in Year Two:
