First of all - well done Chris.


Second, when are the TPF owners going to wake up and start awarding serious medals for such devoted service?????

I mean, there are folks on here who should be getting the purple heart for services rendered at the very least.

Badge?





Gold star in the left panel???

Oddly enough, the thought had gone through my mind, unfortunately there was nothing in there to slow it down and stop it floating straight out the other side.

I'll have a look through the archives and see what I can come up with - what did I do whilst I was here at TPF

OK, so this is how it works. I thought I'd see if there was any measure of improvement in my photography in the time I've been on TPF. So just as a little challenge for myself, I thought I'd present a series of images that represent what I feel I'm weakest at - portraiture. This then is a set of a dozen images taken since I first arrived - as I don't really feel it's something I do, they tend to arrive in batches from similar locations, but I've tried as far as possible to break it up as much as I can. They are in order, oldest first.
