Anyone can see that I have a lot of posts on this forum. I've been here a long time.
My high number of posts is partly due to the fact that I don't spend time on other forums. I figured this site is the best.
I also like this site because I found many posters are rational, clear thinking and engaging individuals.
However, it seems with the demise of the Rob Galbraith forum, that many professional photographers have migrated to LL.
These photographers, by and large, are not landscape photographers. They are more concerned with subtleties of skin tone and sharpness of eyelash, than magnificance of vista.
No problem for me. I also like sharp eyelashes.
My only objection is to a pervasive sense of dishonesty, a distorting of the facts and Ad Hominen attacks upon myself in order to divert attention from a rational discussion of the issue at hand.
I always try to be polite, even when insulted, which is quite often. But it seems this is not enough. Even when I resist giving tit for tat when insulted, a thread might well be closed for reason that can only be the subject of speculation.
