Congratulations on quite a milestone; there cannot be that many sites that have stayed so active and regularly updated for such a length of time!

And a big thank you for making this available, most appreciated.

How ironic!  I was just waxing nostalgic about the Luminous Landscape DVDs last night and watched issue #1 again. My first thoughts were actually about how close to 10 years has it been since Michael first began extolling the virtues of the D30 and digital capture.  How prophetic were Michael's words in 2001?  It was a joy to revisit the DVD and be educated on "compact flash cards."  That DVD is copyright 2001, so I wasn't sure about the launch of LL online.  I have been on board since nearly the beginning and what a joy and positive experience it has been.  

LL, Michael, Chris, and all of the LL contributors have made a huge impact on my pursuit of photographic arts.  Thanks for all that you have done and here is looking to another wonderful 10 years!

Happy 10th!
May the next 10 years bring you 120 megapixels, 14 stops of dynamic range, in an affordable MF_DSLR with liveview on a 4"x6"screen!
Thanks for all the hard work
Marc

Happy Tenth Anniversary!  I'm not sure when I first visited LL, but it must have been near the beginning.  I recall mainly a collection of a few articles about photographing the American Southwest--there was a lot of helpful info about Death Valley.  The forum was much smaller (on different software), with many conversations with Michael and not so much flaming.  For a while, Michael was offering mini-critiques of user photos.  And film was still the main medium.  Times change.

Michael, I hope the site and your photography continue to bring you much joy in the coming years.

Happy 10th Michael.  I discovered LL 7 years ago when I switched to digital.  As a very non-technical person I can't imagine how I would have made the transition without this site.  I am forever grateful.

Congrats, Michael and everyone!  I've been in the forums for four+ years, but I was reading the Luminous Landscape articles, etc. before that.

I was just about to write how Michael Reichmann, is probably the best thing to come out of Canada since the Doodlebops, and William Shatner. However, I have just discovered that Michael was in fact born in England. Thus destroying my plans for a witty response! ;-)

Regardless, well done..!
