Progression - show you first shot posted and your last (or at least close to it)

This thread prompted me to go and look... this image was my 2nd post (1st was an intro).

The last image I posted was this portrait.

My progress thanks to this site has been to try stuff beyond my comfort zone. I don't think I'd pointed my camera at a person when I started on this site. Reading the portraiture lessons sticky thread and lots of the other portrait threads gave me confidence to try a few in natural light. Though I've definitely found that I prefer spontaneous captures of people. Something I still need to practice much much more. But I'm starting to gain confidence.

BTW This was the first person I pointed my camera at (and only then felt comfortable to do so because there was a horse in the frame lol)

I can't wait to have a go.

Going backwards I think.

The first one is a shot from 2008 taken with a Panasonic DMC-TZ2. Not one of my first photos, but it is one of the first I kept on Flickr.
