The Blackangel Posted February 6, 2025 Posted February 6, 2025 (edited) I would have to go with the time I managed to strike a match from about 60’ away with my grandfathers old .22 when I was a kid. I took about an hour of countering for the wind and my own involuntary movement. But after I was sure, I fired and saw a flame pop up where I was aiming. To be sure, I went to to check it out, and sure enough, the match had burned. I did it with a less than accurate, antique.22 on open sights. That was the only time I’ve ever been able to do it, but I’m pretty damn proud of myself for that achievement. Edited February 6, 2025 by The Blackangel
killamch89 Posted February 19, 2025 Author Posted February 19, 2025 One of my favorite memories is from my first photography expedition. I remember the rush of capturing a stunning sunset over the mountains. The challenge of getting the perfect shot and the triumph when I finally did was exhilarating. This experience deepened my love for photography and taught me to always be patient and persistent.
