Andrea B. Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 It just hit me that UltravioletPhotography.com will be 8 years old on 31 March 2021. I am really astounded that we have lasted that long. It has all been a strange, wonderful and amazing trip. It is all of our very cool Members who make UVP what it is. I cannot say Thank You enough to the Membership for all your beautiful photos and excellent contributions. Your friendliness has made this an especially nice place for both experienced and beginning photographers to ask questions, show their work and discuss gear. We have all learned so much from one another. Let's keep it going for a while longer, yes? My Very Best Regards to Everyoneand Stay Safe -- Cheers,Andrea B.

GaryR Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Congrats Andrea!I've seen many IR sites come and go after only a few years. The wealth of information is what sets UVP apart. Link to comment

nfoto Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 The domain name actually was registered way back in 2002 (by me). It lay dormant for a good while until Andrea and I joined forces some years later. Our SW Desert trip in early 2012 led to the actual web site being launched that spring. The rest is history.

bvf Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Yes, well done to A & B for getting it all started, keeping it going, and managing it. And as Andrea says, the membership is also a major factor in the success. I've learnt a tremendous amount from other members, had some great assistance, and seen some amazing work. Not to mention being donated some kit by some members! Link to comment

Andrea B. Posted March 30, 2021 Author Share Posted March 30, 2021 Perhaps a kitten wearing UV bull's-eye flowers will suffice? :grin: See first post. Link to comment
StephanN Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Thanks to Andrea and Birna, ..., and the rest of you, I've learned a lot in the last year. BTW: Is there a special name for the members here, like UVies, or UViPs, or ...? And I haven't found out yet how that secret handshake goes Link to comment
Andrea B. Posted March 30, 2021 Author Share Posted March 30, 2021 We haven't invented a secret handshake yet. :grin: Link to comment

dabateman Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Happy birthday on the East coast. Funny that on the birthday the UV may be dropped from forum names. I was hoping for a cat in UV. I have only seen ducks walking past when shooting in UV. Link to comment
nfoto Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Well, see what all those years of exposure to UV can do to you ... So, beware of UV, and do consult UVP for sound advice on anything UV, IR, and invisible. Link to comment
Andrea B. Posted March 31, 2021 Author Share Posted March 31, 2021 oh my goodness !! All that UV has turned your hair red and my hair white !!! :rolleyes: :tongue: :grin: Link to comment
