I actually started this blog in July of 2009. Between that date and Memorial Day Weekend of last year my posting was sporadic. (please see more text below)

Sometimes you start a project thinking its a good idea and then find maybe it just was not the right time to do it. I think that best describes my early blogging.

This photo was one of my first posts that I did not edit out. Back then I did not even tag posts or use categories. Chances are most folks who have followed this blog even as early as last summer probably did not ever see my pre May 2013 posts.

So, here is the first of those very early occasional posts. As you can tell, I liked flower photography from the start.

Thanks for dropping in today and reading my 500th post on this site! Cheers, Rob
