Outdoor Guy Photography blog<\/a>. \u00a0It looks like my 2010 and most of my 2011 posts & photos have gone by the wayside due to blog size restriction from\u00a0dropping my premium subscription – for that very reason – storage. \u00a0I decided to host my own blog, this blog, with bluehost.com (a WP partner). \u00a0Easy-peasy; it’s a breeze.<\/p>\nI’ve read a few posts today from different photo bloggers stating that they intend to cease posting. \u00a0I’ve read other posts in past weeks stating some are scaling back their blogging or stopping altogether. \u00a0I get it…blogging\u00a0takes time. \u00a0I think there is also a natural ebb and flow of desire\u00a0directly related\u00a0to your level of excitement and inspiration with want you are doing.<\/p>\n
I have really enjoyed the sharing aspect and have learned a lot from following many different individuals, viewing their work and reading about their journey regarding a limited variety\u00a0of\u00a0topics (mostly photography-related). \u00a0Interacting with other photographers and photography enthusiasts has been great. \u00a0The feedback that fellow bloggers provide is also wonderful.<\/p>\n
I\u00a0am finishing out 2014’s photo a day project. \u00a0We’ll see what the next year in photography\/blogging brings. \u00a0It may be time to switch things up a bit. \u00a0In closing I\u00a0would\u00a0like to thank those that follow and comment often; it has been a wonderful experience.<\/p>\n
