I was getting a handful of comments on each photo but people have stopped commenting... is everyone just busy? (-:
Anyway, I love it when I get feedback so I'd appreciate some. You can be as technical and nit picky as your heart desires.
Summer time (for most of us in the northern hemisphere) so that means fewer people spending time online. It's just the nature of the beast. I run a number of websites and the summer is always a slow period across the board.
I'm finding that a lot of people are leaving me "mentions" when I comment on their photos. It gives me a lot to read, but it's not all under my photographs. And no, this isn't any sort of complaint...just an observation that a lot of people seem to be communicating in that fashion...with me, anyway.
For me it's work pressure. I realize that I have less time commenting on people's photos. As I also grow the list of people I follow I also have less time to leave comments on many that I would like to. For me photography for the project is fun, and commenting on others' work relaxing. Too bad if I do too much of both I might find myself out of job!!!
My views and my comments have dropped drastically in the last few weeks - I'm guessing that the pressure of work and hols etc is taking its toll. I'm also wondering if it's the stage people are at in their projects. Most of my followers who are new ish always comment, those who are over half way through I guess have larger follower numbers and keeping up is difficult timewise.
I agree with @sparkle in that the stage people are in with their Projects affects commenting. When I started, I had fewer followers and could keep up. Now that I'm into my second year and have more followers, it's impossible Sadly, there just aren't enough hours in the day.
Plus, it's summer here and my kiddos are out of school. I want to spend more time with them and less on my computer during the day. And at night when they're asleep, I'm catching up with my writing so commenting, again, gets put on the back burner.

Thank you all for your input. I figured it was probably something like that. (-: Thanks so much for commenting!
