Don't Leave Me This Way
This photo has a point to it.
I'm noticing that I have a lot of contacts who never comment on my photos. I get so many emails saying contacts have uploaded that it clogs my inbox and robs me of precious time.
(I know I can shut that off, I tried that and I missed a lot of photos from regulars.)
I know it goes both ways, there are some contacts I don't comment on either because they don't comment on me or I have no interest in flowers or sunsets.
I'm not interested in your photography skills, I'm interested in you.
How can you have 2,000 contacts and keep up with all of them? Like friends in real life, I'd rather have less but have them be real ones.
So I am going to do the same thing I am trying to do to my love handle - trim the fat.
I am going to pay close attention in the next two-three weeks to see who comments on at least a semi-regular basis. I don't expect a comment on every photo. I know you have a life, and not every photo will move you enough to comment.
I will also look back and take into account the people who do comment infrequently, but also post infrequently.
Then I am going to start removing contacts. The whole point is to save precious time and inbox space.
The other point to this photo was that I look awful today and I just couldn't show my face.
I only noticed the homoerotic undertones of this as I typed. And then I realized a certain segment of my audience is going to have a field day.
