And that includes me...
yes friends, once upon a time we used to receive lots of images from all of
us, now the numbers have come down as all of us can see.
A great performance comes from the artist and the audience applause, very
often nice pictures come up but the response from our end is almost
missing..Very often krushnamegh and Isaac Kehimkar have some encouraging
words to say, I think we all ought to emulate them. That is what will
encourage the others to send more of their images.
A good butterfly photographer from Mumbai told me a few months ago," I
prefer to post on Facebook as there is some response from the viewers.... When
i send the images to Butterfly India is as if i have posted them against some
dead wall"
Vijay Barve the leader of the group is trying his best with new themes but i
am sure the response from the rest of us could be better, As Butterfly India
has more than 1000 members
We have to work on two fronts one will to get people to send pictures , the
other side will be to ask members to send words of encouragement to those
who have posted if you are reluctant to post your letter on the group
please send a a personal message to the contributor. Almost all artists
like some feedback on their work.
Also most of us check the mails on weekends unfortunately sometimes there is no
mail on these two vital days, could we have another moderator who will
help out on these two days.
Suggestion no 3 would be Could someone pick up the images from facebook and
upload it on this site on a once a week basis. All the photos can come
under one mail entitled...Images from Facebook this week. Of course a common
consensus is required regarding this suggestion.
Any other suggestions from readers how we can revitalise this group are
welcome
