largess

The circle is complete. London, UK

Three years ago (though you will soon see how debatable that aspect is) I have started largess, a photo blog inspired by an image similar to the one above, sunset at Madi's place. It became the place where cats strolled on tree branches in the sun, all varieties of flowers bloomed, shadows were pregnant with tales and all my trips abroad were documented (not to mention my trips around Romania, too).

Within one year of its inception, the photo blog moved to cheezy cheeky as the category daily dose, and went on to show the wonders and horrors that populated my world, as part of my main blog (it was only fair). In these three years I have worked with at least six cameras, from basic phone exemplars to semi-professional gear. Though you wouldn't be able to differentiate (I'm not): the focus has always been the story of a brief moment rather than the high quality of the images.

Time has come to put largess and daily dose behind me and, since nothing dies and everything transforms, there will be a follow-up, though I can't promise to stick to the daily rule; it has been a pain for me, though no doubt a pleasure for viewers. I will, thus, continue to publish quirky and endearing photos yet, for change, they will be accompanied by stories. My love affair with photography shadowed the writing on the way, and that's what I plan to recover from now on, the joy of storytelling.

As for the debatable three years, mmm, here's the thing: 365 x 3 = 1095, and adding 1 extra photo for the leap year brings me to 1096 images. How that managed to start on July 17th, three years ago, and end on August 3rd yesterday, beats me. I could have gotten some numbers wrong, but it's more likely that I simply couldn't deal with that daily rule as well as I thought. Thank you for enjoying the ride and spicing it up for me with comments, and here's to endings that turn into beginnings!

259 -- and photoblog moves on cheezy cheeky

Flowershop in London. From this post onwards, the photoblog continues on cheezy cheeky, my main blog. I wish I could move all posts yet Blogger offers no other way to do it but copy and paste. What matters is that my mobile life goes on, and so does proof of it.
