I know, it's been a long time since I posted on here.....a long time.
​
Well I had a complete change in how I produce my images, the gear I use, where I post and what sort of imagery I create. I've been around so long I remember a time before the internet.......yes that old and have worked through all the photo sharing sites that the interweb has thrown at us. I suppose the shift of instagram from photo sharing to video clip platform was the point of no return for me, flickr, shutterchance, 500px, well I was there and now live in other places on the web....

New kit to get back in the Stock Image Library work again, Nikon Z611 and a 24-70 and I have connectors for all my ancient Nikon Glass, there was a real dislike from Gettys algorithms over my Fuji X-trans files...could never work it out so back uploading to Getty, stills only as they would like all the time lapse and video in Mac Pro Res 422...I used to fiddle it with iTunes and save files in mac and Getty acceptable codecs...can't be bothered now...

So the plan is to cash in on the Fuji X100v, get a macbook and a X100t or F...that's the plan, need to overcome my inertia....still it's a plan.

​So posting, I post on Google maps...no one liking or commenting just viewing...so just popped through the 500,000 views barrier in less than a year...you should try it far better than a handful of regulars clicking by and can all be done with your phone which means I can stress out about the stuff I need to do for image libraries...more of that in another post.
