Re: Tone-deaf guy in the choir?

Thanks for the comments Mark. The suggestion to not post so
many
similar shots together is a good one. I had been pushing
myself to
post a new photo every day. I haven't met that goal, but
when I get
out to shoot and have several good ones, I want to show them
off. I
think I'm going to back off of that though.

As far as the comments, I understand it's a social function.
I guess I
just expected more with the amount of traffic I get. The
other thing
that concernd me, that I failed to mention, is that on sites
like
photoblogs.org, my site doesn't get bookmarked/tagged. Is
this also a
purely social thing? I would expect that with 26,000
photoblogs
listed, there might be a few who find my work interesting
enough to
bookmark and tag, but right now only five other people (I'm
the sixth)
have tagged/bookmarked my site, and it's been listed for
almost two
years. If it's just a popularity contest, then I can live
with that,
but if it says something about my photography, I'd love to
learn what
it is to see if it's worth pursuing.

I think you have a great site going! It's clean, easy to
function, the
photos are beautiful. I understand the thoughts of, "Oh
man! No
comments! That was a good photo, too!" but then I think
about myself.
I like vazaar.com for this very reason; you give critiques.
You get
critiques. You can share what you would've done in a non-ass
way. I
find myself browsing photoblogs.org and aminus3.com now and
I can
start form a better comment. Before, I got tired of saying,
"Nice
photo!" "Beautiful color!" and the same old
stuff over and over again.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that the fact that people
aren't
commenting as much as you'd like is probably a good thing
because they
aren't finding anything they'd fix and if they did, they
probably
aren't comfortable enough to tell you exactly what they mean
anyway.

It is a social network, unfortunately. I would check out
vazaar.com,
vfxy.com, and flickr and start posting there - a lot more
critiques
and feedback that way.
