City Light
Today I'm posting my 1,oooth photograph on this my citydailyphotoblog. I haven't missed a day since December 31, 2008. I've tried hard to post just one photo and have stayed pretty true to that, with few exceptions. In my images, I've tried to show off the city of Portland, and some comings and going in my backyard, with a bit of me sprinkled in for good measure. Back then, I had been looking for a project to showcase some of my recent photos when I came across a daily photoblog and the rest is history. It's been fun and quite a challenge some days to get a picture and a few words up and posted each morning. Another piece of the project that I never expected has been all my new blog friends. Thanks to all who have stopped by with kinds words and some laughter. Click!

ReplyDeleteCongratulations! that is no small achievement.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo too.
: )
Good for you! I also started in 2008 (November) and have posted everyday...but as you know, was not able to post just one photo...out of control. Your idea is much better.
ReplyDeleteTerrific and congratulations! You have gifted us with your daily presence, and we need to thank YOU! May the next 1,000 be as much fun for both you and us.
ReplyDeleteMazal tov on a thousand nice posts! Thanks for your hard work and dedication to a blog we enjoy so much.
ReplyDeleteCongrats and keep up the good work! This is an absolute beauty of a shot!
ReplyDeleteThat is the perfect 1,000th image Birdman, what a beauty! I haven't 'virtually' known you for as long as some others, but have to say it's been a pleasure to read your posts and looking forward to more..
ReplyDeleteQuite a milestone, Mr. Birdman. I look forward to more of your posts and your visits.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Birdman. I enjoy my visits to Portland through your eyes. On to the next thousand!
ReplyDeleteWhat an achievement! It's been a joy to visit your blog each day, to travel to Portland past and present with you. You have something special here and we hope you continue telling us stories in word and image for a very long time. Birdman, both virtually and up-close-and-personal, you are a gem.
ReplyDeleteI would like to add my congratulations. You always manage to create both moods and memories with your posts and you do it all with an admirable economy. Keep on keeping on!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your 1,000th post! It really is tough to come up with something every day. Glad you have persevered. :)
ReplyDeletePS: Beautiful sky.
Excellent! Congratulations! I have truly enjoyed your images and stories, thank you.
ReplyDeletegorgeous colors and that is quite impressive, 1000 posts! i started in 2008 as well after somehow stumbling onto paris daily photo and eventually thought it would be fun to do and learn about the town/area i was living in at the time in georgia. since then we've moved to virginia of course and it's been fun to learn about all the new things i am seeing here as well but i haven't been as dedicated as you! congrats!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 1,000! I look forward to another thousand.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Birdman!
ReplyDeleteWhoah! Congratulations, birdman! I'm so glad you've posted your photos and your thoughts.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the 1000 mark! You are celebrating with a 'feast for the eyes'. Beautiful shot.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteI'm deeply impressed. 1000 days in a row, and with lots of very nice photos as well. Today's photo is a good example.
Beautiful colors! Congratulations on your 1000th post. I always enjoy your pictures!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. It is an achievement.
ReplyDeleteYour blog is terrific! Congratulations on post number 1000. That is indeed a great accomplishment as I am learning just how much of a challenge it is to be that consisitant, especially while having a busy lifestyle. I think the blog friends part is the best part!
ReplyDeleteI started ten days before you and I have never missed a day, but my 1000th post will only be next September... Are you counting the photos instead of the posts? My compliments anyway!
ReplyDeleteIt is always a pleasure to see your pictures and to read your stories!
All of the above. Very well done.
ReplyDeleteBirdman -- and I thank you for your warm words and beautiful photos. I discovered you late in your blog career but have certainly enjoyed looking through your past posts as well as your regular daily posts. Thanks -- barbara
ReplyDeleteI too was late to discover your work. Enjoy my visits. Thanks
ReplyDeleteYou found a beauty to celebrate your 1000th with, Birdman. Congrats! We all know it's a challenge to maintain the rhythm of posting daily (I had to give up). I only "met" you recently, but it's been a pleasure every time I drop by (being a working gal, my commenting time is limited). CHEERS to you!
ReplyDeleteThis photo offers a fine celebratory offering for 1,000 photos. Your posts are always interesting and fun. Keep on keeping on!
ReplyDeleteNot only a pic a day but also a wonderful story to go with it! Congrats on the 1,000! Looking forward to the next 1,000.
ReplyDeletecongrats and a beauty to celebrate
ReplyDeleteWow, congrats Birdman. Although I am a recent blogger friend, I like getting to know you and enjoy your posts and photos.
ReplyDeleteFirst, congratulations on your 1000th post. As most of us daily bloggers know, that is quite an accomplishment and challenging to do. Second, this shot is gorgeous. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeletecongrats to you! very consistent posting!
ReplyDeleteA BIG congratulations to you! I enjoy your blog every day with your wonderful memories and super photos. Here is to the next 1000!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to you... That is quite a feat... I used to post a blog (with 6-8 pictures) everyday --but now take Sat. and Sun. off. It got too much for me ---and I couldn't keep up with all of the comments.
ReplyDeleteBetsy
congratulations!
ReplyDeletewow, and never missed a day....
im trying to, and mostly i enjoy it, but sometimes, especially when all goes wrong, i wonder why-oh-why i am doing it...
until i get comments! :)
Congratulations and a good one to begin the 1001 for another thousand and many more !
ReplyDeleteWow, 1000 pics. Tomorrow, number 1 of the next 1000. I enjoy your photos of Portland, it's people and sometimes history. It's a great part of our country. By the way have you ever been to either the Muddy Rudder or Otto's? I also ate on a former ferry boat in the harbor where the meal was great.
ReplyDeleteThis achievement shows us it can be done. I share your intentions; but few of us can tell a story like you can, Birdman. Keep on weaving your tales.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the one thousandth post! I just posted my #1,000 recently too. I didn't know we started in the same year.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty.
ReplyDeleteLove it
