First EVER sourdough AND Starter ?

Hi all, I am a total newbie and this was my very first sourdough made from my very first starter that I have lovingly been feeding for three weeks now! 

I just wanted to share because I’m so very proud I know it’s nothing compared to some of you my next goal is to try to get really big holes in my crust and those really neat patterns after I cut the loaf! I hope you all enjoy ?

Looks like a good loaf to me. Well done.

It is something that you should be very proud of.  It was a year ago that I made a starter and I remember those early days.  Then the first bake.  Your starter looks really active and your loaf looks like it had good oven spring.

Great job. Very well done. Now, as you say, to refine it just the way you want.
