I started out posting a few pictures that I could tell stories about on my blog. Then I decided to comb through all my photos and just post some of my better shots. Now I'm planning on pretty much posting all my photos, whether they're good or not. Because I can. It's like my diary.
I don't Photoshop or post-process anything, save for the occasional red-eye removal and the rare crop. For me, photography is what you capture with your camera, not what you manipulate on a computer screen. Plus, I'm lazy.
I do hope that many, or even most, of my photos transcend the apparently pejorative "snapshot" label. Whether they do or not, you're welcome to enjoy them. Or not. But you're more welcome to enjoy them than not.
Speaking of enjoyment, if you enjoy a photo of mine enough to use it on your blog or something, please credit me and link back to my photo. I also ask, as a courtesy, that you comment on the photo you're using so I know when and where it's being used. Thanks.
And I get lots of hits, so feel free to buy me at Empire Avenue: (e)PAD.
Oh, by the way, it's not my real name:
