Month #17 - Retrospective of Daily Photos posted from 5/04 to 12/09 (most viewers for the month)

September 2005 - This is a sample from my early "web-days" when I was learning to master technically perfect web photos - very shallow DOF to blur out the background and putting the film plane precisely parallel to the web (else two opposite edges will be out of focus because the DOF is only a few mm's). This is one of the first that I "nailed". Later in this five year evolution, I learned to be a bit more creative - this image looks similar to 1,000's of other web images. Not the creativity I learned to strive for as time went by.
