I too, will miss Linda. Her thoughtfulness and encouragement will be a big loss to UHH and all its members. It was a big pleasant surprise the day I got a PM from her inviting me to log onto "For Your Consideration." I was a bit overwhelmed. But I investigated that, and several other sections of UHH.

I have learned a lot in the last two years. I owe a lot of that to members of the same caliber as Linda, of which there are many.

I too have been the target of incivility. I too almost left because of it. But, I said my peace and staid around. It's interesting that most of those "God's Gifts to Photography" have, for the most part, disappeared.

Linda: Take a well deserved break. We all hope to hear from you from time to time.
Good tidings. And keep shooting!

I thought I could exit without a going-away party, but I was wrong On Tuesday I thanked the folks who posted to mwsilvers' topic. Please know I'm greatly appreciative of those - and now these - wonderful comments!

I also didn't anticipate the curiosity that would be generated by my not providing a "why." I apologize for that. It's a mix of UHH burnout (80,000 comments in 6+ years), health, and frustrations over how much of this site is devoted to incivility and other bad behavior, as well as how much is simply snapshot sharing. Only a tiny percent of active users here are interested in thoughtful discussion or teaching.

All the best to everyone!

I just found your note, Linda, and am sorry to see you go. I’ve enjoyed being photo buddies over the last six years and wish you all the best.
