Nobody there

[Roger Hicks]

Thank you, Roger.

I enjoyed the article, it brought a smile to my face after a not so great week. Thoroughly enjoyed your website, too: bookmarked!

Dear Brian,

Thanks. We all need more smiles! Hope you have a good week-end and a better week next week.

Cheers,

R.

Please don't.

Please don't.

Exactly. If Stephen thinks I take more than I give, I'll leave the site.

Cheers,

R.

I offer my meager appreciation for your posts Roger. As near as I can see, so do several others while just a very few seem to have a problem. Poor Them.

Thanks Rodger.

There are, I'm sure, quite a few people like myself who will take a minute and pop over to a linked site to see what you have to say, and unless as you say Stephen says something I really hope you ignore the negative comments.

Stephen already has spoken about this. I couldn't agree more, especially for a mentor.

I thought he had but did not have the link. Apparently Roger still insists on the behavior despite Stephen's admonition against it.

folks,

Roger has always been a bit contrarian. I like that about him, to a point.

He took it upon himself not to participate at RFF when told his recent style of merely linking back to an article on his website was deemed no longer acceptable and not really participating at RFF.

While Roger's photography contributions can be outstanding,
he needs to stop merely lazily linking back to his own site without posting and participating with his articles at RFF.
Or, leave his articles out of the mix, and just post.

Well done, Roger. I have a series of empty chair photos that also reminds me of the absence of people.

Thanks Roger! I for one appreciate your works. Please keep posting. 🙂

Roger,


I noticed that you posted an identical post with a link to your article over on Amateur Photographer. Just copy and paste.

I clicked on the link.

Maybe I missed it, but I don’t read posts from folks dissing him there like they are here.

Thanks for the article and the link, Roger! As always, you present valuable ideas in very well written form. I have read and appreciated your articles since the days you wrote for Shutterbug.



I heartily support you linking to articles on your web site, which makes immensely more sense to me than copying-and-pasting the whole thing into a space here. We know its source, regardless.



If we can put links to our personal web sites in our signatures, why couldn't we link to them in the text of a new thread?

Some here asked why posted link to it is elsewhere. I read how people reacted on OP link there and it looks like quality not always comes in quantity...

Anyone or Nobody Here? 😉

2. Send a message to a mod if this issue is that important.
3. Stop reading if it really sticks in yer craw.
4. What’s the difference between Hicks inviting us to a website where he might get a small pittance and another poster directing readers to visit a real-life gallery where an artist may gain a pittance from sale of a print?
5. The film/camera/darkroom community is so damn small. What do you gain by alienating us with trolling and pedantic arguments?

Madame,

This made me crying a little. I am reminded of a story about Hemingway. He says to friend in bar that he can tell a story in six words. His friend bets against that. Hemingway: "For sale. Baby shoes. Never worn."

Hemingway wins. My heart breaks.

Roger, I sometimes photograph this topic, though mostly I find I can make more interesting photographs with people rather than their absence. Thanks for the discussion.

What is happening here is quite sad really - i hope it gets resolved soon. There are moderators, these are the people we need to inform if we disagree with what is happening. Rather than publicly crucifying people, mods need to delete a thread if it does not not meet the website's policies.

Anyway, my version of 'Nobody There'

This theme is present in my photography too every now and then

places with an own special magic like at Rollei´s former factory here

 

[Roger Hicks]

On balance, it looks as if rather more people are interested and engaged by this sort of thing, and come on to RFF to post pictures and discuss the idea, than want to complain about it.

So I'll carry on doing it until Stephen decides he can stand it no longer.

Cheers,

R.
