Why All The Single Photo Threads?

[MikePennPhoto]

Instead of making several single photo posts a day why don't you just start a "photos of the day or week" thread.

Instead of making several single photo posts a day why don't you just start a "photos of the day or week" thread.

...because it’s difficult to make comments on a large group of photos besides ”nice series”.

When you post a single photo it gives people a chance to look at it carefully, take some time with it, peruse it and make a considered response. Otherwise it’s just click, click, click from one photo to another.

IMO, best to let people go to your gallery or website to peruse all your work if they want to.

So it's people's short attention spans. I haven't seen any difference with responses in threads with multiple photos or with just one.

Few really take time looking at photos and writing responses. But for those who do, it is far better to be presented with one photo than 10 or 20 at a time.

I have liked many of your photos, but have found it difficult to comment with the sheer volume you have submitted here.

Why are you posting here?Have you looked at other’s’ photos, considered them and responded? What kind of response are you expecting from your own series?

As I stated before I was asked to rejoin DpReview to add some pep to a couple of forums by posting photos and answering questions.
I've looked at others but rarely found any worth commenting on because I know the arguments that would start after giving constructive criticism. Sorry, a single random photo doesn't do it for me.
I don't expect any responses. If someone leaves a comment that's all well and good, if not oh well.

Aren’t we fortunate!

I've looked at others but rarely found any worth commenting on

None up to your standards?

because I know the arguments that would start after giving constructive criticism.

Not if you are respectful and considerate about what you write, like many here are. This is a community of photgraphers.

Sorry, a single random photo doesn't do it for me.

So you will only consider series of photos, never single ones? Each to his own...

Next we'll tackle the point by point response instead of the bottom response which is more annoying than the single photo thread.

Instead of “adding some pep” to the forum you seem to be complaining about it - a lot.

It's called a suggestion. The point by point response makes it difficult for others to respond to the conversation.

See you're already blowing this conversation out of proportion.

[Daedalus2000]

Instead of making several single photo posts a day why don't you just start a "photos of the day or week" thread.

One of the problems of the single photo threads is that a small number of people dominate the front page of the forum. When I had a few pictures I wanted to post recently, I had to use the single image approach, otherwise my thread would be buried within a couple of hours, with no feedback.

I do not think people realize how much they dominate the forum with their multiple threads. One evening I saw that within 12 hours one person posted 7-8 threads I cannot remember the exact number. He pushed everyone else almost out of sight.

We were all posting photos and quite capable of answering questions long before you got here. I think by “pep” you mean narcissistic posts?

I've looked at others but rarely found any worth commenting on because I know the arguments that would start after giving constructive criticism.

If it was truly constructive criticism I doubt there would be any arguments. But considering your posting history here I’m highly doubtful you can give truly constructive feedback.

Listen Kung Fu you obviously have issues and you're acting like a brat. You have NO way of getting under my skin. If you had any sense of intelligence you would be outside trying to take better photos than wasting time as a keyboard warrior.

No need for a reply like that mate.

Sure the moderators would find that constructive?

It's an appropriate level of response to an annoyance.
