You're looking quite good from that introduction, as I'm sure you know. :)
I have the same question as with Oniric Mermaid: How comes that you put so much time in your artwork - and show it here at ipernity?
Thanks for your visits and kind remarks, MacKey!

what about if you'd start introducing yourself :)

zumal bei vielen die bilder , die sie zeigen schon sehr
viel über ihre person sagen ... nicht ?

Hi Mo,
that's true of course - the pictures people show in their stream tell a story or two about the authors.
What I would like to know of you is the same as with all of my visitors: How comes that you put so much time in your artwork - and show it here at ipernity?
Thank you. I appreciate your visits an comments.

i stumbled by chance over a photo sharing site and
i was fascinated seeing what other people were showing
in their pics : either because of another perspective they were
showing or because of the artistic work they presented .. both
attracted me and let me start sharing my work .
i changed from the other site ( one you seem to know too ) to ipernity ,
like many others for known reasons ... and landed here .
i love the atmosphere of this smaller and mo-re european community ...
and i met wonderful people that mean a lot to me meanwhile -
the most important one you know too by now .
... the reason for spending time here is because i love to communicate with
other people .. see their pics , get to know what they're thinking and seeing ,
maybe what they're dreaming .. mundane details out of their world .
i also love to know what they think and feel when they see my pics ...

... told you a lot .. it's your turn now !

Thanks for your self-description, franck! Is ipernity something special for you?

Siegfried Vogel replied to :

Ah, I knew this would happen. :)
But putting mo aside (difficult to imagine, I know! :-) ), what's special with ipernity for you? Why are you showing your work here?

Siegfried Vogel replied to :

Thank you, Mo! I see. And I listened. Socializing and sharing emotions and thoughts with others is a great thing! Nice to have you here!
Some lines about me. When Internet was young (hehe) - or at least community sites - I discovered a photo community site. And as I just had started with digital photography, it was a perfect match. I learned a lot looking at other's work and discussing my pics and that of others.
I just outgrew it, as it became a mass phenomenon, like everyone has a digital snapshot cam by now.
Ipernity is not the masses - and I really hope it will stay this way. I like familiarity and when the community is not too big, the comments tend to be richer in content.

Thanks a lot, franck! Do you think this ipernal diversity will finally cause you to develop and strengthen your own style to photography? Or will it just distract you?

Siegfried Vogel replied to :

Thank you, Joe. That's a good statement for my guestbook though. :)
Here I'm asking my visitors (and now you) two things:
How comes that you put so much time in your artwork - and why do you show it here at ipernity?

Siegfried Vogel replied to :

Photography is a creative hobby for you, and ip (and other platforms) are your stage to the world. Ok, thank you so much for your self-description, Joe! Hope you enjoy my stream.

Siegfried Vogel replied to :

Yes, I'd like to back up the argument of internationalism. I have been member of a Germans-only photo plattform for many years, and after a while it got a bit incestuous. Here, multi-cultural platforms like ipernity make a real difference.
Thanks a lot for your thoughts, pixel cafe!
BTW, do you come from another platform, or is this a brand new start?

Siegfried Vogel replied to :

Thanks again, pixel café. Last question, as this is not your first photo platform: If comparing your experiences in IP with flickr - do you miss something here in IP?

Siegfried Vogel replied to :

Yes there are improvements. The ipernity lists for latest activities or latest publications of my network seem to have errors. Same with latest visits in my ipernity site.
I'd really like to see all events in these lists, not just some of them!

Hi there Siegfried! You have a very nice stream, I will be back for more. As for why I'm here... well it's a diversion and I like the people. It's a cozy size community. And I like to learn from the many different artists here.
