First Image To Have 1000 Views

This is one of my earlier uploads to FAA and has always been one of my favorites. I was just checking stats and see that this hit 1000 "Views" last evening. This is a milestone, of sorts, for me. I have also had two sales of this image here at FAA.

The "Misty Island of Assawoman Bay" was actually one of those "accidental" shots. I arrived a couple hours early to scope out a vantage point for over-water sunsets, saw the sky and mist developing and captured this shot.

I actually did get a sunset from that location that evening. However that has only garnered 322 "Views" in the same length of time (and zero sales).

I don't really know for sure. Probably this one that has 23,000 views now and has a very high Google ranking.

But this one has been moving slowly up for a while. I have a Youtube video that helps promote it.

And this one hit a thousand recently. It has lots of shares on Twitter. No sales :-(

Beautiful Magnolia, Frank.

Bradford, that assemblage of Oil Rigs is amazing.

I have 23 images with 1000+ views. This one is my second most viewed image ( 2,946 ), but probably first with 1000+ views.

This one of mine has had 1992 views so far. Congrats to all.

While meandering through city parklands looking for something suitable to photograph, I saw this marble memorial in the distance with what appeared to be a life-sized statue adjacent. As I got closer it became apparent that it was no ordinary figure....it was a magnificently sculptured bronze angel bearing a palm branch and standing on the steps. The building itself did not seem imposing and the sculpture, although the main feature to my way of thinking, seemed like a most effective afterthought. It was a dull day so I returned another time when the light was better and shot it handheld from different angles. That's my hat on the steps and was deliberately placed to counterbalance the composition and add a visual distraction to the strong prescence of the main subject....what I now refer to as my 'Dark Angel'. Some post editing was done to cause a slight colour shift and some vignetting added (it is not hdr tone-mapped). The monument in Angus Gardens, Adelaide - South Australia was erected in 1915 and attributed to WR Cotton. It is dedicated to George Fife Angus and John Howard Angus, pioneers, pastoralists and philanthropists.
