For instance, the use of the word ain't.

And my lack, for the past couple months, of checking all my subscribees' deviations.

And my lack of posting my own deviantness.

And the reason for this post: I haven't thanked you all nearly enough for your thanks for my adding you. I am grateful you haven't spanked me thoroughly, but instead were grateful, pleasant, jovial, or however you saw yourself when you posted on my main page. It's a warm sensation I'm feeling for you all, as a group.

Individually? I'm not perfect, in that I don't have unique words to reply to each and every one of you anymore on that thread. So I stopped.

You can spank me now.

Also... you guys inspire me. I have been working with Lightroom quite a lot this past month or two, and one of these days I'm going to get around to chucking a few bits and pieces on this page. Meanwhile if you want to see the whole shebang, hit up "blankphotog" on Flickr. That's me!

I heart DA. But I don't spend as much time here as I might. Nor do I upload a ton of pictures here, as I might.

What might cause me to change this?

Honestly I don't know. I have dry spells at other sites I have a profile at. And there are tons of those. I recently decided to do a 365 day self-portrait project over at Flickr. That's getting me to take pictures every day again.

So I don't know.

Do you know why I will never subscribe here at DA? Besides the fact that I don't see any benefit to it generally, it's all the doodads. When I look at other peoples' journal entries, I can't fricking find the new content for all the stamps, icons, links and other paraphernalia that litter and clutter their message.

It turns me off, dudes and dudettes.

I want to read that latest thing you have and nothing else. I certainly don't want to see any of the crap that you've had up there the last hundred times you updated.

I cease to pay attention and usually leave DA after seeing a couple journals like that.

So I don't want to be complicit in this pollution.

Sorry!

Hi all you new watchers and lurkers and stuff!

I'm happy you're here. What I put up won't change knowing you're with me, but then again, maybe it will! But what I shoot won't.

It's all good.

And I have been shooting some different stuff lately. Stay tuned.

I updated my website last night. Didn't put up more galleries, but did throw a few new links up, and a few isolated images. There are still a few things I have on my list to do just for the feel of the site, and then I hope to focus on more actual content again. Pretty good progress given I haven't even touched the site for a full year. I don't know how that happens. I guess I felt like updating because people had been telling me they had actually looked at the site. That hadn't happened for a while.

Interestingly, I took my real name off the site while performing the update.

Blankphotography.com is the site.

Oh, and you probably have noticed there are a few new Deviant pics up as well.

Literally thousands of images could follow... but probably won't.
