[Leica] Your best Vs most viewed

[jhnichols at lighttube.net (Jim Nichols)]

Douglas,

My current LUG gallery has been around since November of 2004, a little less 
than six years.  My most frequently viewed images date from November and 
December of 2004, so time in place gives them an advantage.  However, they 
are quite different images.

Coming in first, with 479 views since posted in Dec 2004 is a Restored 1932 
Great Lakes Biplane.  It has been helped by a couple of external links to 
other groups.  I am convinced that there are other airplane lovers on the 
LUG besides myself, because it gathered a lot of views early on.

The second-most viewed image in my gallery is quite different.  It is a bar 
graph showing the results of a LUG Age Distribution Survey, initiated by 
another LUG member, which I compiled.  It was posted November 14, 2004, and 
has had 367 views.  To the best of my knowledge, it has not been linked 
outside the LUG.  Perhaps we are just overcome with curiosity about 
ourselves.

I feel that my more recent work since going digital is probably better than 
the airplane photo, but time in place is hard to overcome.
