Default 3,000th posing. How times flies

Well, I've hit a milestone of sorts today. This is my 3,000th posting. In my one year's time with DPS, I've managed to make a lot of good friends and a few enemies Inform some, whether or not they liked being truthfully told about the business side of photography and to actually learn how to take pictures in general before starting a business as well as sharing useless bits of information (UBI's) hopefully that helped many. Beware there's more to come throughout the next year I'm sure.

Been busy shooting....crappy Seahawks football, Olympic swimmers, high school wrestling, college and high school basketball and of course the two dogs, which I'll share now. We used to keep a wicker basket full of newspapers next to the fireplace, but got tired of having to pick up shredded bits of pages throughout the living room after Toshio got ahold of them. Now we put his toys, bones and a chewed up plastic water ball in the basket. When he wants to play with something he goes over, digs through it and pulls out what he wants. Also here's a shot of Buffy and Toshi playing in the backyard. Enjoy!

3000 posings? Wouldn't you need to change your sig to include some red Ls for that?

I'd have more posts but my boss watches me like a hawk

Always though UBI was Unidentified Beer Injury though. Then again knowing what UBI means would be a UBI

Hey Jim, with 3000 posings, that must make you the poser of the year. I know, it's impossible to change titles, right. Congrats on the big 3K though and every success with your business in 2010. PAUL

Blimey 3000 postings in 1 year! When I first joined I felt you were quite rude to me but now I know that you didn't mean it. You were just being honest and upfront nothing wrong with that.

Your dogs are cute! I laughed my head of at the one playing in the garden. Its the expression on their faces.

I sir thank you, You made me realize a while ago that in the business end of it I suck. So I did take a step back and focused on the business end of photography. Thank you for keeping it real.

But seriously, you're a great help to many, Jim.
