    I agree with you. I am no friend of social nets, to many people there and not much contact. I remember that, when I was on Twitter, people enjoyed re-twitting such very original statements, as "Good morning", "Hello", Good night", "Thank you", etc...If you tried a longer sentence then that, it was met with much suspicion, no re-twitts then.

    Twitter seems to be the brighter of the dull gold. I do get some semi-conversations there, and have decent sharing with other photographers, artists. But what facebook, twitter, etc lack is coherent discussion. Facebook is so big that someone invariably posts clickbait things on a literature page, like "Does God hate puppies" - and awwwaaaaaay the conversation goes.

    Eh, what can be done, perhaps our attention spans are shrinking, for real.

    Enchanting in this kind of mist. Ever collected the pics in a book? Internet is ephemeral.

    Physical books are a tough business, lucky to break even. That said, I might. I do print and sell many of these photographs. A print looks much better than digital, that is for sure.

    I know it is not easy, you need an experienced editor to make a good project of the book for you, there are the matters of costs, of publicity, you will want to sell the book.

    Loved that, StLuke. Reminds me of the German romantic pictures.

    Well, if you want reality - just look outside.
