Milestone

My Camera, a Pentax K20d has recently reached a new milestone. Pictures taken by the camera, are named numerically, starting at IMGP0001 (the first photo ever taken by the camera) and ascending - IMGP0002, IMGP0003 etc with each new photo taken. During my trip to Capetown, the count restarted at IMGP0001 after reaching IMGP9999.

The camera having officially taken over 10,000 photos!!! in less than 4 months.

Perhaps as a sign from the heavens of the connection between photographer and camera, the last image taken before the count restarted (IMGP9999) was a great image and can be seen below in the post "Durban to Cape Town" on Oct 21 2008.

The image is the third from the bottom in the post and features an impromptu portrait of Darren crossing a stream at Second Beach, Port St Johns. If you run your cursor over the image or click on it to see a bigger version you will see proof of the image name as IMGP9999+copy.jpg. The "copy" representing the fact that I edited a copy of the image in photoshop (to retain the original as a negative).

Thanks for dropping by
