Really pleased today because I have reached my first payout! I have been here on DT since January 21st 2008 and so have reached this in just over 5 months. I just need to work harder now to increase my uploads with the hope of reaching higher downloads.

I am trying to fight the urge to take the earnings now as what I really want to do is leave it in there until I have enough for a new wide angle lens from Olympus...could take me quite a while though!! Still at least I will feel as if I am working towards something.

Really enjoying learning from DT and hope to be able to keep improving my skills as a photographer. Thanks DT!

Here are a few of my best selling images. I think the next goal will be to get some of them up to level 2!

Way to go. The first $100 is the hardest. You'll find sales will be quicker now especially if you continue to upload new photos. Good luck on your next $100. I'm almost there. :)

Great work in your port, and congratulations! This is such an incentive to keep pushing. I've been here just a wee bit longer than you, and am just shy of the half-way mark.
