42 views and I'm back from my Leica walk, LOL! No I cry!
We have many people looking at our images. We don't as a group have good enough sense to respond to other's pictures. Why?
Reluctance to say the wrong thing: rubbish. Say what you feel. You like it you dont, there's a learning point. Read my responses. I admit not all perfect. I have made mistakes I'm sorry for but I know people understand that.
We must treasure and celebrate each others pivtures and share the experience by giving feedback.
Who will respond if you didn't aknowedge their picture.
I will work very hard to get a new way of posting the images so we can have an east gallery access.
Anyone who wants to help me let me know. I have this as the highest priority.
Go through each of these pictures and how do you react:
feelings, thoughts impact. What do you think of the colors, tones, textures, subject and does it move you?
You do not need a degree in comparitive art to do this, just eyes, a heart and a soul!
This is what we are about. Our reactions helps the photographer learn the extent to which his/her ideas are received and some feedback.
This requires a minimal of effort. Just a pithy to the point comment is helpful.
I return to a thread to find no answers but if I have already posted, then I don't want to see my name again! This is a community ans we can't just post our own pictures and merely look at everyone leses!!! So I am committed to makeing the interferface easier. In the meantime, please look for hte new pictures and add your comments, so your own pictures will get the feedback you value too.
We have TONS OF GOOD MANNERS mayvbe too much so people are scared to post comments on pictures, Is that the issue or jusr leaving the risk or extra 10 seconds to someone else.
On the Ball posted by Frank Piechorowski Oct 3rd 2006 53 views and not a single response. This is a tragedy and disappointment since this is well composed, interesting, personal and worthy of discussion. By not doing so we are not respecting this and other contributions like this!
