lol, What name is short for Richard? What is a cranium?
Light dawns! Ta, Ben!
Used to refer to it as Richard Edward myself as I actually knew a right one at uni who was baptised with these two Christian names by his none-too-bright parents!
I know some don't like me because I "Rub them wrong".
I can be a RICHARD CRANIUM sometimes, its a flaw in my personality.
The means to my excistance is three kids and not photography, and the ends to my life are these kids.
my hangups mostly are on a coat hanger, however, sometimes those clothes fall down, and I am the only one that can make it right again.
I will still submit work. But, for now I will also pick and choose my contests, and stay on the sidelines as rgo suggested.
Dang, I'm dosappointed. I thought the REAL focus of your life was invading England with war canoes, and I've been working on the staging area here for a couple weeks, per your statement that you were coming this summer to launch the assault.
You may be rubbing a few people the wrong way, but you're also making some interesting points (albeit somewhat bluntly) and amusing a lot of us as well with things like the abovementioned...
Hey sj don't be so hard on yourself. When I entered the minimalism challenge I knew my shot was out of focus and got a lot of comments regarding it. I got kinda upset at first but after talking it over with Manic I realized to take it as a lesson learned. Sometimes people say stuff they regret in the heat of the moment. I now only enter challenges that inspire me to try new stuff. Take it with a grain of salt and keep shooting and sharing your work. To me this website is about a community of friends sharing a passion we all love. The challenges are just an extra. Enjoy the ride and keep at it. Never, ever, give up.
Whoa there...
Apologies if I came on too strong there, SJ. That sideline comment was really a hypothetical.
Mea culpa anyway, and hope you're not really withdrawing away.
man, dont site on the sidelines. i looked at your work and its great. c'mon, dont hold out on us. if some people get upset about something, so be it. im a Chiropractor....more people than you will EVER call me a quack and ive even lost what i thought was good friends over my profession. just let it roll off your back. life is too short to give in to "them" and the way "they" think. as B.J. Palmer said...."the paths of least resistence is what makes rivers and men crooked." dont take the path of least resistence. take care...and SUBMIT!

Oh, I am going to submit....but I am going to pick and choose.
Before is was about this site, now its got to be about me.
