Abandoned Pathways

Low and diminishing return upon investments. Investing time and energy and effort into attempting to strike a chord with an audience determined to get along without me. Eight to ten responses and responses of nice,pretty leave something to be desired. Then there are the I don't get it's, be clearer.
My interest is more in the writing than the photography, the photography mostly being a way to illustrate a thought. One recently made a useful comment. Rosemary has been a help in this area, offering input. I cannot get much from pretty, nice, beautiful, wow.
Even Susan in her same oaks and lamps and sunsets night after night get's quite the input. I do not like to play a same theme again and again. One theme is my constant moaning and complaining over the Facebook and blogger friends. There are about two dozen faithful, but I do not go beyond.
I will say it again until for some reason I am tired of saying it. My fellow photographer friends get share after share and comment after comment. My own friends share his stuff.
It begs the question, which no one is telling, yet in a way everyone is telling, your stuff just ain't worth the sharing on the level of your fellows. Get over it. Put up or shut up.
Tomorrow I shall try and do something that will get me UP.

Saturday I will have prints at the gallery for the yard sale. I am putting them in painted wash tubs that look like watermelons and fruits. I may bring the gourds as well. I will have the painting for Mr Jones coming over from Panama City from a hunting trip to purchase his grandfathers painting and other photographs of the home place. I thank Melissa for this, in that she put me on the You must be from Trenton page.
Old girl friends rock.

Anyhow, the word is UP....
