RE: Statistics show that this post will most likely not get over 20 views in total... Should I expect more when having over 450 followers or not?
I am following you because of something I've liked that you posted in the past. I have read THIS post, but I also have to say that I disagree with you about something you've written here. You speak negatively above about photographs with no text, "or easy meaningless one photo posts with no text", but where you see a photo, I SEE a text. A photograph IS a text. It can speak volumes, better than any words. "A picture paints a thousand words." Frederick R. Barnards in Printers Ink, December, 1921.
Yes you are right. Thanks for commenting. I wrote it down as I said to make a clear statement but indeed some photos can definitely say more than a bunch of words.
But what does happen a lot though is very simple posts with only a photo. I think photos should at least be accompanied with a reason of why the author decided to share it. Not only by the title.
Everybody is different. I am visual - some pictures are awesome, and give your brain a rest just looking. I appreciate your post and didn't mean to criticise, just to provoke discussion and place a different point of view. Thank you for your post, and your reply. It is a great forum and a privilege to be able to interact with people from all over the world.
