This week sees Sunday Morning Photographer celebrate its first anniversary; Mike Johnston looks back at the reasons why the column started in the first place…

“The Sunday Morning Photographer” had modest beginnings. It started out to be just a few brief paragraphs that my friend Michael Reichmann of luminous-landscape.com kindly agreed to put up on his site every week. The first column, published on March 31st, 2002, got a few hundred hits and some nice e-mail responses. I thought that was great! At the time, my resolution was to see if I could keep it going for a whole year.

All in all, SMP is now read every week by a minimum (in hard documented hits) of 25,000 photographers, and the actual readership might well be twice that. If you’re reading this, thanks!”
