Those 44 posts have been categorized 16 times as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.organiclightphoto.com\/blog\/?cat=6\" target=\"_self\">Announcements<\/a>, 9 times as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.organiclightphoto.com\/blog\/?cat=7\" target=\"_self\">Images<\/a>, 8 times as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.organiclightphoto.com\/blog\/?cat=4\" target=\"_self\">Inspirations<\/a>, 4 times as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.organiclightphoto.com\/blog\/?cat=39\" target=\"_self\">Moonsighting<\/a>, 23 times as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.organiclightphoto.com\/blog\/?cat=10\" target=\"_self\">Reflections<\/a> and 2 times as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.organiclightphoto.com\/blog\/?cat=8\" target=\"_self\">Workshops<\/a>.\u00a0 Now of course if add all those up its more than 44 posts, so obviously some were marked under multiple categories.<\/p>\n<p>So all in all, as seen from the post stats, the journal has lived up to its\u00a0subtitle &#8211;\u00a0&#8220;The Journal of Insights Through Reflections on Nature&#8221;, &#8211; for the most part anyway.\u00a0 Have I &#8220;panned&#8221; across all that is photographic, probably not, but give me some time.\u00a0 In my first &#8220;Real Post&#8221;, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.organiclightphoto.com\/blog\/?p=10\" target=\"_self\">Calm Down<\/a>, I wondered if the time I spent writing and updating the journal with new content was going to be worth it.\u00a0 For the most part I feel that it has been a worthwhile endeavor.\u00a0 I was hoping to see more feedback and discussion take place, but the feedback that I did receive has been positive and hopefully the articles I have written have been of benefit.\u00a0 I guess the real proof has to come from the readers.<\/p>\n<p>So I want to hear back from all the readers of this journal, have the posts I have made been of benefit?\u00a0 Is there anything that you would want me to write on that I have not?\u00a0 What about the journal itself:\u00a0 Is it easy to read?\u00a0 Do you like the format? Are the links to other blogs and websites relevant?\u00a0 Do you have a blog or website that you would consider having a reciprocal link to?\u00a0 Would you like to seem me change the journal and in which ways?<\/p>\n<p>So lets hear it.\u00a0 I hope the next year will be as good as what has past, but I really hope it will be much better.<\/p>\n<p>Peace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I just realized that it has been a year and 12 days since I started this web journal &#8211; aka Blog.
