June 6, 2010. One year old today! It's just over 300 pictures since my first Flickr upload exactly 12 months ago.

I've had a lot of fun and learnt a lot this year.

Thank you for the many kind comments. And many thanks, too, for sharing in this forum your phenomenal images, unique insights and thought-provoking observations on what can be a wonderful world.

Update July 2023: Very nearly went blind last year - cataracts. Very lucky to live in a land where the required operation is readily available. Back from 30% to 100% vision. So after a bit of a hiatus I'm back. And due to an early retirement scheme I now have more time than ever. It's good to see a few familiar faces are still around.
