Up until now I've been going back and either further editing or completely redoing the post-processing some of the photographs I've posted here based on the criticism. I'm beginning to think it's counterproductive. I think I'm going to start just accepting the flaws and moving on. It just seems that at this point I have more to gain out of constantly working on a new piece than overworking a previous one...

Thoughts?

PS You all need to post more. I don't like seeing my name on the front page so much.

You can only go so far with editing. Take more pictures first.

I took my 10,000th picture yesterday with my camera. (Around 4k with my old camera too though those are mostly family snapshot type pics.) I figure that means I have almost 50 semi-good pictures to work with now.

And I'm glad you post here, it used to be me appearing spammy.

I like you. Mostly because you keep the asshattery and trolling (as well as the legitimate differences in opinion) on some topics separate from other topics. Many either can't or don't...

I dunno you are probably a good guy and someone I would have a beer with, but we seem to rub each other the wrong ways most times. Regardless, of all of that, I still like your work and believe you have talent.

Thanks. Always good to get unbiased critiques, especially the positive kind.

Though I think a lot of the friction is exaggerated by me mostly trolling and arguing for the sake of arguing on ACF...

Pretty much as it is a damn cess pool but, alas, it is the only place left on VN that has a number of posters (VN is just dieing for a few years now only IGN will not pull its plug).
