One year ago there was my last submission.
I haven't stopped taking pictures, i just started to work hardly, and then, you know, when your job takes almost all the day, you'd rather spend your free time in other ways than staying at the computer, checking everything, submitting pictures on sites and what else. I have my own website, i upgrade that and my own Facebook page with my pictures, and that's all.
Then: why am i writing here?
During last weeks, i've been (slowly) realizing i changed my photography's habits and tastes according to people approval, i've been tending to spend more time taking pictures i thought other would appreciate than taking pictures i would like. It's happening since 1-2 years i think, not sure.
I mean, i haven't taken or edited or updated or published (or also printed and/or sold) photos i don't
really like, but i lose sight of what is my own meaning of photography.
This is a thought i have in my mind since a while.
Then i came to deviantart just to take a look to my gallery. And finally i see everything much clearer now. Don't pretend to own the truth of the world (sic!), but i only see pictures here that have a meaning for me. Even if they aren't technically perfect, or they're not pieces of art, they mean something for me.
Each one represents a certain period of my life, and reminds me some feelings, emotions, and memories.
They're just part of my life, and not of other people's life.
That's why i'm writing here, and that's why i'll restart uploading here pictures more regularly.
I quitted from almost all the groups, i wouldn't submit my photos everywhere.
They will just stay here. Whoever wants to see, they're here and will be here.
Most important is i can watch them when i want, from where i want.
Oh, funny thing. My last journal entry ended with my travel plan for 2011.
I almost followed it perfectly.
Went to Milan, Prague and Bratislava in March, to London in June, to Prague again (my bestfriend moved there in April) on July and Wien on October.
And 2012? Who knows.
I went to Prague (3rd time) on January (no snow unfortunately) and to Turin on March. Planning to visit Riga (Latvia) or Ljubljana (Slovenia) in May or September, but for sure i will come back to Prague on October, and will stay there for 12 long days, visiting Czech Republic and also Berlin. Hope to do all that.
