Thank you + 300 Points GiveawayHello everybody :squee:
Originally i wanted to write this journal when i reached 2000 watchers, but school starts on monday and right now i have more time :heart:
I just wanted to say thank you to all the people that support me here on DeviantArt. When i created my profil about 10 month ago i never thought that so many people would like my work. This really encourages me to take even more photos. I love to hold contests, feature people and browse through amazing pieces of art, there are so many great things to do.
In this 10 month i got my first DD and even earned money with my photography. For me all that is just so...unbelieveable :wow:
Some stats :
My 190 deviations were viewed 353,182 times
Watchers : 1,981
My deviations received 7,239 comments
My deviations were added to favourites 67,964 times
My most favourited deviation is Blossom, with 3,060 favourites

- for those that don't have the time to do a feature themselves i am going to provide a code that you just have to copy into your own journal
( but i would be happier if you take the time to create the Feature yourself )
- only one Deviation per p

Goodbye 2012 - Big FeatureOne more year is almost over....
For me it was a pretty normal year, neither really good nor really bad. But in regard to Photography it was a great year for me.
I got my first DSLR Camera and i even earned some money with my photos. I love taking photos and i hope that this will stay the same next year.
Within this year i got over 1800 watchers and that really means a lot to me. Thank you so much ! ♥
For now i have some amazing photos from 2012 for you, i am sorry that the Feature got so long, but there where so many amazing photos that i just couldn't stop.
 I hope that all of you will have an amazing year 2013 !
Goodbye 2012 and Welcome 2013
