That's what I call coming back in style (Just came back myself a few days ago) You do realize that #3 and #6 need to be printed large?

Just so you know pjv, Dave aka daacon has been around this forum for years, joining in 2007 and has more than 20,000 posts. He's not a First poster by a long shot.

I didn't think he was with quality photographs like that, He suggested that we keep shooting and posting and I said he must do the same. I think you read something into my post that I did not say.

You called him a First Poster. In actuality, he is the Original Poster, not the First poster.

Ok, I tried the same thing it did come up as First Poster. I'll talk to Admin here and see what's up with that. Sorry for the confusion.

Apology accepted photolady95. I could see from the warm responses daacon was getting that he was an old friend returning to the fold.

Well that explains why I haven't seen you around Dave; you were too darn busy taking professional photographs and selling them for millions. You had better print the third one large and hang it somewhere you can see it everyday (even if you have to add an addition onto your house.)
