While I was taking pictures at a family gathering this past weekend, I did not realize that a momentous event took place. I have had my digital camera since April of last year, so for about 15 months now. And, yesterday, that camera took its 10,000th photo.
#10,000
This shot of my cousin Amanda exiting a kayak is that photo. With no offense to Amanda, it isn’t perhaps as memorable a photo as I could have imagined, but it is nonetheless a momentous event.
Of course, it’s not ACTUALLY my 10,000th photo taken. There were those photos deleted, those files transferred under a different non-generic name. However, as far as my camera is concerned, I’m starting over: the four-digit code has run out, and now it’s back to 0001. Or, since I took another 259 pictures, back to 0259.
Here’s to 10,000 more!

Y’know, Myles, I actually think that this is a photo more than worthy of 10000. It’s of someone having fun, its got a certain artistic beauty to it, and they had NO idea you were stalking their every move, lens in hand, singing its little ‘bizeet-bizeet’ happily.
Congrats on 10000.
