365.62 Pinned

Well, this marks the 290th post to this website… Not a huge milestone, but it also marks the 10,000th photo with the D7000 since… I’m not sure when. Maybe since I purchased the camera in June or July 0f 2011, maybe since I updated the firmware in October (that couldn’t be right… except I was …
