My son’s Marine Corp Reserve Unit was activated for the 2003 Iraq War, he’s getting his equipment ready for his departure. He was gone for 9 months, a tough time for his mother and I. I think he said his backpack alone, not counting duffles, was 85 lbs.

Wow.

Just to bump this up.   It's been quiet for three days now......Don

This weeks challenge is a follow up to a previous MC #644, Nostalgia: Your First Digital Camera Pictures. This current MC all about photos you took when you had one of the earlier digital cameras or your first digital camera. Therefore, IQ is not the primary criteria. Composition, an interesting subject, reliving a fond memory, or the evoking of some other type of emotion are.

Some examples will follow.

This challenge will end on Friday, June 10, 2022 at 11pm Eastern time.

Challenge Rules:

The host gives you a topic and you post up to three images that fit. Remember, it's all about fun, sharing, and learning. Any picture you have taken in person is eligible, regardless of the time taken, camera, or post-processing used. The host chooses the winners and honourable mentions and posts those in a new thread. The host's decision is final. The winner of this challenge then hosts the next challenge, judges the winner of that one, and so on it goes. The winner of this challenge will have 48 hours to post the next challenge. If that doesn't happen, 2nd place will have 24 hours to do so, then it's up to 3rd place.

Submission Posting Guidelines:

Post each one of your three submissions in its own reply to this post. Give each post a unique Subject, please. It is best to embed an image in its post rather than linking to somewhere else. Feel free to post photos "for exhibition only" if you want to share more than three, or won't be available to host the next challenge. Try to preserve the EXIF please, so we can see which camera, lens, and settings were used.

Comment Posting Guidelines:

Feel free to post comments on the images or ask for comments. Don't hesitate to click on the green "Like" thumb on the top right of the post, so we know which images were most popular. Likes are appreciated as much as constructive criticism is. The host can make up his or her own mind without being influenced by that. I wish you all "good luck" and let's see some interesting pics.
