Let's think about this, it was a photo of an ex girlfriend's dog running on a beach that did it for me.

What a Q!
As a 10-yr old? ...... nup
As a teenager? ..... didn't know enough of the greater world out there, except that some camera club people were 'damn good' at what they did
Later in life ..... heaps ~ Frank Hurley, Damian Parer, plus many others

It wasn't one photo, it was a summer of photos with my gramp.  He was a photographer and he took me along as a helper one summer.  Good times!
