For awhile now I’ve not been feeling the love for my online art gallery\/community. Some things happened recently which have encouraged me to move on. So I have. To another Australian-run online gallery.<\/p>\n
Me on Ph.Art Gallery<\/a><\/p>\n (And yes, the name is deliberate and you are supposed to have a chuckle at it.)<\/p>\n It doesn’t have some of the features of the old place and it is solely about photography but I think that’ll be good. You have to submit photos to the public gallery which is a new things for me but it’s good because it means I’m meeting their standards. And that’s encouraging. I did wonder what to do about my written pieces but I have a deviantArt<\/a> profile. I experimented last night to see how hard it’d be to add written pieces to it and it’s dead easy! So that’s that sorted.<\/p>\n In the end, I felt like I simply didn’t belong. I used to get a lot of encouragement from the more experienced photographers but there seems to be a general lack of community feeling there these days. The forums which used to be fun now seemed to full of people more interested in attacking each other than having a sensible discussion. Who needs that in their lives?<\/p>\n So, new hopefully greener pastures. It’ll be all good. I have some work to do though – posts to update. Lots of dead links now to photos that have been hidden.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" For awhile now I’ve not been feeling the love for my online art gallery\/community.
