Gorgeous, kamaly!!

Dann.

kamaly, on September 22, 2007, said:

Thanks, Dann! We've had a real string of crystal clear cloudless days with these surreal evenings lately. September skies are one of the huge benefits of living in New England!

Dann Cianca, on September 23, 2007, said:

Sounds like a good place to visit, especially with fall foliage season coming up!

Nice!

kamaly, on September 28, 2007, said:

Thanks Kojak! And Dann, I'm sure hoping we have good color this fall. Its been so hot and dry that a lot of leaves are already just dropping from the trees. But its Always a good time to visit New England!

This is a beauty Kamaly. It is now viewed 1000 times. I'll remind you at 1111,lol. Guy.

Nawitka, on June 23, 2008, said:

Hi. 1001. Very nice!

kamaly, on June 24, 2008, said:

oh - cool! thanks, guy and nawitka ! I do wonder where this one came zooming up from, though I'm glad its finally out-paced the bland Bermuda shots! yes Guy - you did have a much better shot at hitting this number than most you try for!

someGuyinmasset, on June 24, 2008, said:

OK, I can't help it, 1010. Where did you see Boston in my pic Kamaly? I realized I made a little mistake on it. Guy.

kamaly, on June 24, 2008, said:

thanks, guy, just keep those view counts climbing! maybe I was wrong about the boston tag, because part of it didn't look right, but the photo on the monitor seemed to be "kamaly 'splains panoramio", so when you said you'd planted a treat in the photo for me I thought maybe that's what it was.

someGuyinmasset, on June 25, 2008, said:

It was your "light blades" on there. Course I didn't put up the larger view but it doesn't show well anyway. Here's a funny one, I used a tripod for the pics to try different lighting, I had a friend convinced that my computer turned lights on and off in pictures, (going back and forth between two shots). Are you wondering who to fool? A young niece would be a good target.

kamaly, on June 25, 2008, said:

hmmmmmmm - OK, that last comment sure has me wondering, since there is a young niece who came out with a pretty funny line when she mis-understood a photo just recently!!!! ...????... But I can't think of anyone who'd know about that funny story who could be pulling my leg and posting photos from the Charlottes, so I'll have to assume its a strange coincidence... I also have some other shots of the light blades that could really set your friend's head spinning. no time now, but I might post them to Bits-n-Pieces in the next few days.

kamaly, on July 3, 2008, said:

Thanks Guy and Nawitka for the little efforts to help this photo hit 1000 last week. Just in case anyone wants to help the cause, my most specially numbered photo is about to hit the millenium - Perfect chance for anyone who might like special numbers, hint hint hint!!!

(Speaking of numbers - geez, one of my old photos got 63 hits in 6 hours over night! GoogleMaps must really make a difference to view counts - I think much more than GE itself!)

someGuyinmasset, on July 3, 2008, said:

1111

kamaly, on July 3, 2008, said:

LOL, OK, now I'm not being pre-cognitive:

Thanks for all the Ones, Guy!

(The first thanks was for the Kilo-Kite. I was feeling a bit embarrassed about having been pandering for views for it, so wanted to move my shameless begging out of view!)

Nawitka, on July 3, 2008, said:

While we're boosting view counts on Kamaly's favorite, how about if you help me decide which photo to enter in the "water" contest. My moon jelly which is not in GE, or the snails, which are?

kamaly, on July 4, 2008, said:

definitely a tough call, Nawitka! (Though a very clever ploy for upping view counts! I must have gone back and forth several times between each trying to decide!) I still keep changing my mind between them, but I see you do also! I'm having the same dilemma. I think maybe this one, but then I think Little Dingies, then Clapping Hands...I found out more than a third of my photos feature Water! I may still be thinking about it when the Water contest closes!

Eva Kaprinay, on July 5, 2008, said:

Interesting shot! Good idea! Greetings Eva from Wellington

kamaly, on July 5, 2008, said:

Thanks very much, Eva! It was so hard to decide which one to choose for the Water contest, but this one finally won out. Cheers!

someGuyinmasset, on August 2, 2008, said:

OOPS! I sent my comment MCI instead of MDI.

kamaly, on August 2, 2008, said:

at least I use Sprint, so it came through loud and clear! And it's funny, because MCI is about the only number like that you didn't post!

Thanks for the MDI!

someGuyinmasset, on September 5, 2008, said:

Just checking up on this one.

kamaly, on September 8, 2008, said:

well, thanks, Guy! Nice to know others keep watch over the little ones, too! Funny: I just forgot, and opened this in msn when reading comment e-mails, when I was logged in on FireFox. So now I get to give myself the MDCC...hmmm, or is that MCCM ?

someGuyinmasset, on September 8, 2008, said:

MDCCCI, But I was waiting for a single pair.

kamalyn-3D, on September 8, 2008, said:

LOL: so does the Birthday Card count as a single pair? :D

someGuyinmasset, on September 9, 2008, said:

Three pair.

kamaly, on September 9, 2008, said:

ha-ha, guy. and actually, the opportunity is there right now for a nice one of a kind on one you like.

kamaly, on September 10, 2008, said:

Thanks, Guy. You've got a lot of M notches on your belt!

someGuyinmasset, on September 29, 2008, said:

Hmm, better add a couple more.

someGuyinmasset, on January 12, said:

Well, as a pre-tagging penalty on the other one I claim MMMMM on this one.

diannemcd, on January 12, said:

Great photo Kamaly another I have missed. I need to spend a whole day just going back on different galleries. Dianne

kamaly, on January 13, said:

Thank-you, Guy. You may have the claim - You got one M, you get them all. Pretty amazing how fast this one zoomed up there!

Thanks Dianne ! One way to unearth old shots is to hit some of the tags. The first ones are the first ones uploaded, so you really bring up older miscellaneous shots that way.

@Ippa, on February 6, said:

Great composition, colors and depth! And Jupiter! Cheers, Ippa :)

kamaly, on February 7, said:

Hi Ippa - Thanks! It seems like such a strange photo to be my top shot, though!

whoelius, on March 27, said:

GREAT FOTO PLZ VIZIT MY CONTIST....

Sorry...

Lovely pic, kamaly... is Jupiter the most prominent one?

And my view is the 1027th-prime-numberth view.

kamaly, on March 27, said:

we thanx yu very mcuh whoelius - who appears to really know his numbers! (lol, I can name the primes up to about 29 - and I don't even mean the 29th prime)

Jupiter is the little dot there - funny that I called it out here, since I've gotten much brighter ones of it since then.

And even with the view count translated to primes, it still seems so strange that this is my most-viewed photo. Seems it's one of the top 5 that are used for Boston in the google maps photos and all the 'Boston' related websites. How weird, and frustrating - it hardly shows anything about the city at all! But nice explanatory shots like this sunset have a big 200...

not1word, on March 27, said:

This single photograph tells me everything that I could ever need to know about Boston. It has clear blue skies, red tree trellises, and waterfalls. Book a ticket, Dann-o.

kamaly, on March 29, said:

LOL, well, better not come to town expecting ANY of those everywhere, especially on a gray dreary day like today...and the waterfall and red frames for bamboo are only in this little park that I know quite well...But we've got lots of boats and buildings!

Nawitka, on March 29, said:

Yeah, we have lots of nice boats and buildings in Vancouver too. But my most popular photo is a couple of police motorcycles parked in the rain. Not even a very nice photo, IMO. Go figure. :S

someGuyinmasset, on May 13, said:

Well, another Milestone has passed, congratulations!

kamaly, on May 13, said:

Hey Guy - 10,000 Thanks for that!!!

diannemcd, on May 13, said:

Well done Kamaly - I can only dream.....Dianne

kamaly, on May 13, said:

Thanks Dianne - though I've got to say I'm completely BAFFLED about why this one has this kind of view count. It gets three times more views in a week than most of my shots ever get. (and not even a nice chocolat shop in the background like Nawitka's.) But I sure do get a giggle out of it.

Anatole Sidorov, on May 14, said:

A great shot.

kamaly, on May 15, said:

Thanks very much Anatole Sidorov - Cheers!

Conquilha, on May 25, said:

A very nice one. congratulations from portugal

kamaly, on May 25, said:

Hi Conquilha - Thanks very much! Cheers from the States.

Eleven thousand nine hundred and twenty nine.

I just thought it would be fun to write that all out.

You're welcome.

kamaly, 3 days ago, said:

Thanks n1w! And hey, if you'd like some more fun, you could write all that out on a piece of paper from your checkbook and then you can even autograph that and send it along! (just want you to have some fun!) Sorry I don't have any neon to offer in this, but there just might be a couple of treats in the next couple of days for you. :)

whoelius, 3 days ago, said:

Are you looking at Jupiter right now, kamaly??

I think I got Callisto last night, but it was with a very rushed shot. Hope to get a better one tonight. It's only one pixel, but still!

kamaly, 3 days ago, said:

LOL, whoelius, unfortunately a resounding NO to that. Last month, I went on a great night time kayak under a giant beauty of a full moon. I realized its almost that time again - and we haven't seen the moon or any other the other sky stuff since that night!!! We've just had endless gray clouds...June was apparently the cloudiest on record. Now its July 2 - and we've had about 5 inches of rain in those two days. But we hear rumors that it might appear again this week-end. And the fog tonight made for some fun photo ops...

not1word, 3 days ago, said:

OK, kamaly. Let's see here...checkbook...pen...is that the legal spelling of your name?...well, you should see your first payment in a few days. ; P

kamaly, yesterday, said:

well Thanks not1word! Tell you what - I'll post some nice neon for you in exchange for your little piece of paper :)

Norrel, yesterday, said:

No! Don't do that, not1word! Please! It's a nickname. Her real name is Ms. B.N. Pieces.

not1word, yesterday, said:

Well, now it's up to the bankers. They always settle everything.

kamaly, yesterday, said:

hmmm, Norrel she might tell you that, but it's a ruse to scam you from your money! Just send it right on over to me, n1w. I'll put it to good use.

and lolol, a year ago today Guy tagged this shot with 1111 . And now it just hit 1111+11,000+1. Thanks for the good luck, Guy!

whoelius, yesterday, said:

12121

I don't want to be picky here whoelius, but you typed in your comment backwards.
