The reason I say I was hesitant, is from past experience of reading a few blogs. It seems that so many people just strip themselves naked and put it out there for all the world to read, and I for one had the feeling of what it must be like to be a Peeping-Tom when I was reading one in particular. Are they truthful, or just looking for attention no matter how they choose to go about getting it? One very lengthy and drawn-out blog I know was just an attention-getter......a pity party at best......yet some folks fall for the tales of sorrow and woe that are 99% fictitious.

Thank you for being the genuine individual that I've always known you to be.
I know exactly what you mean, I'm not a big blog reader myself, for the same reasons, I guess. There are some photo blogs though that I really enjoy and that I find inspiring, and that's the kind of direction I'm trying to take with my own. And I have always enjoyed writing; in fact, I was writing a lot before I started taking pictures. The blog, however, is not written in my native language, and you may wonder why... Well, the answer is... I just don't know, but I find more beauty in the English language than I do in German. That's kind of weird, isn't it?
