Seems only yesterday I joined DA and started posting up my images.. wow.. its been about 5 years.. DA has been around that long.. It was here when I first started shooting digital and posting up images... amazing.. now that I'm considered a 'rofessional' photographer.. I'm still posting up images.. and even more amazing is the huge amount of talents I see here. I remember when I first joined DA, there were less than a few thousand members and now.. what do we have? You can't even keep the number steady for a few seconds..

I see images from my first wedding and see images from my latest.. I can actually see how much shooting form and experience has evolved over the past 5 years.. During the times i used to shoot with my Chinon back in '83 to my Nikon F-90 in the early 90s.. I could never see my evolution.. maybe because I never kept a collection as I do here on DA. I hope DA stays around forever because it will one day be a place for historical information on people like us.. of whom ppl will forget in years and decades to come but creations will be preserved in chronological order.

So i think that is what I will do from now on.. time to time.. I will post up images.. that way, I can see my own progress in years to come.. and hopefully, my children and children's children can see what I did.. even though by then, what we do now would be nothing to the great things they will do then.
