until further notice...

I am afraid there is no other solution but to abandon and close this account for the time being. I have no time to devote to anything but my job anymore. Furthermore, contemporary photography has devolved into a photoshopping-fest and should actually be labeled photomanipulation rather than photography. Contemporary poetry and literature try to confine themselves to as few words as possible to adjust to an information-overloaded, reading-weary public. Not a good time for oldskool folks like me. Many thanks to all of you who have supported me and appreciated my art over all this time. I will lurk a bit and maybe we will meet again when things have gotten better. I bid you farewell with the best of wishes and kindest regards. Goodbye.
