DANNY

This man sent this picture of himself to me a little over a year ago. The reason I am posting it is because he is the one who inspired me to start shooting. He helped me decide what camera to get and helped me get started. He has also given me pointers along the way. Without his help, I wouldn't have gotten started into photography and on PBase and wouldn't have learned so much from everyone here. I have learned so much and many of you are inspirations to me everyday. I couldn't decide on who was my favorite because everyone holds a special place in my heart and I've learned so much from each of you. So, I decided to post the person who got me started and that I am thankful to everyday! Thanks, Danny!

This man's name is Danny Barton. I've known him for over 30 years.

I just had to post a comment here. Danny remembers me as the old "wicked witch of the west" LOL. I chased him off when Cindi was barely 15 and much too young to date in Jr. High. Yeah - we were strict with our three girls - but all of them are winners" They were in 5th grade at the same time.

Good job on your photography, Cindi. You created a "monster", Danny - naw, she has a hobby she absolutely loves and is quite good.

Cindi's mom (and I am really very nice now in my old age heh)

God bless.

Thank you, Darlin'. I am honored! I may have given you the itch to shoot. But I had nothing to do with that incredible talent you have developed!

Oh...the nice thing about getting old and having accute CRS is... I don't remember ever changing Di's diaper even once!

I know this guy! He's the one who got me started in digital photography and pbase as well. I think he might have even changed my diaper a time or two when I was a baby. Love you big brother!
