Hi Everybody!
I truly thought social media would help my commercial photography business. I know it works for some, for me it only wasted my time. So, now that I'm no longer looking for work I have dumped all that stuff including my Wordpress blog. For me retirement = switching gears has turned into a start over event. Last year I started a substack page ( https://substack.com/@deonreynolds ). I use it to replace my Wordpress blog. I was unhappy with them since they want me to pay or put ads in my posts. substack is free and is oriented towards writers but works fantastic for any creative (I'm noticing lots of photographers starting pages). I'm posting mostly photographic locations I've enjoyed over the years (heavy on images). Not much in the way of technical posts, for those I'll keep them here on medium format forum.
