I did choose my subject line without thinking. It's not meant to brag but I was surprised at the number of views. I have seen many others images on Flickr from others that put mine to shame. My images are more of a Journalistic/Scientific theme and not Fine Art. I've been amazed by the quality of any number of Fine Art images on Flickr. Long ago I used to put my images in groups but stopped that years ago. Once again, I want to thank those who have made nice comments & apologize to anyone who thought I was bragging as that was not my intent...

I like your work, I couldn't ever do what you do. Congrats, you deserve it.

Unfortunately, the internet as a communication medium allows all sorts of numbnuts to come out of the wood work and fill 6 pages with dung. The concept of allowing a person to define their own context is lost. We are a generation of idiots who can't even hold a civil conversation anymore.

Anyway...good stuff there.

Humble or not, Scott has photographs that are better than the vast majority of what I see on the UHH. He does not need to feel bad at all about nearly any of his many images. I did not look at every single one. There are a few that I'm not fond of. I should spend more time in the Gallery than reading arguments on the Main Page.

Congratulations, Scott!! Ignore the nastiness. SOME of these wonderful photographers amaze me with the uncalled for comments....Hummm must just be jealous with the negative comments. This is why I very seldom post.

You are humbled yet you brag about it.

Just say you enjoy it instead of proclaiming false modesty.


You have a point.

Maybe you should have prefaced your post with, "At the risk of tooting my own horn, I did this.."
because that's exactly what you did. And I think that's OK. I Went to your Flickr acct. to see what it takes to achieve your milestone. it was an informational post to me. Something that I needed to see.

Maybe there should be a Section for just such posts. After all, we're all here to learn from successes as well as failures.

Only in your dreams or on another site.

I hear you. Its funny how some people, who have NEVER posted a single image here, call me jealous. Please, grow up, its not kindergarten anymore. What some here are celebrating is misplaced bragging and fake humbleness. If that is what you want to do, shame on you. An idiot even tried to compare my Flickr views to the OP's. I joined in 2013.....the OP in 2005. Thats 13 years...... Also he has been quite occupied following more thab 600 photographers there.....who, of course following back. That will make your images exposed to a lot of more viewers and that is a good thing dont get me wrong. In my case I am not interested in been widely recognized. This to me is just one of my many hobbies. In 5 years Ive gathered more than 300,000 views and I dont really care.... Are those views a good thing? Are they bad? Really dont care, but I bet the same idiot who tried to go there wished to at least have a half of those. I know the quality of my work and I am VERY satisfied with my images....perhaps jealousy comes from other places? Who knows? Again I dont really care.

People have been preoccupied to be politically correct at all times that they end up promoting all this hypocrisy and dishonesty. If I see something I dont like is better to shut up and move to another thread....and why is that? Why can I tell it like it is? Who are you to dictate when to speak and when to shut up? I bet a LOT here think as I do but choose to not say anything to avoid the usual hypocritical and butt kissing bandwagon here. From time to time is healthy to shake the tree and see what comes down. I see here that a lot of shoes fell down....and found its users.
I hear you. Its funny how some people, who have NE... (show quote)

Amen.
