Cover Photos 2009-2010
Starting the website in 2009 I faced many challenges. One being that I didn't have a digital camera! I was fortunate to discover that people were keen to email me their pictures for cover photos, so we've almost always had a new photo on the front page of the website every month. Now that the website has been going for nearly 6 years (as of 2015) I started to get all nostalgic and started browsing the galleries for these pictures. With over 400 gallery folders on the site it became hard to navigate through everything, so in addition to the new pages of "Gallery Highlights" (perhaps I should just call it "Marty's Picks") I decided that we should be able to see all of the previous cover photos without needing to navigate through the galleries. So, I hope that you will enjoy the trip down memory lane with me!

October - November A
I cannot quite remember what happened here. Perhaps I forgot to put up a new cover photo one month, so I put up two photos at the same time for the months of October to November. I did like the slightly psychedelic background.
October - November B
If memory serves me, I displayed this and the previous picture together as a "town and country" theme. The previous is the town picture and this is the country picture.
December 2010
I really, really like the artistry of this picture.
