Should I stay or should I go?

March 3rd, 2013
I have only a few days to go untill my 365 and I have to say it, I don't wanta go!!! I have not been one hundred percent to the rule and I have have made the site my own, posting more than one picture a day or even posting in advance but hay ho life goes on, I have met lost and faved new friends I have grown in skill and failed in tasks. But I have had so much fun... would anyone object if I had another try at 365 or do I have to change my name to big bertha to start again lol :-D
March 3rd, 2013
No don't go :-(

I think I read somewhere that you can go on for three years!

And anyway you make your own rules, that's all part of the fun :-)
March 3rd, 2013
What rules? :) hope you continue, you can just use the same album
March 3rd, 2013
of course, the choice is yours. but if you go i would miss your photos and comments, for sure. maybe just take a little time off, then come back again. or, stay.
March 3rd, 2013
I hope you stay - just has a look at your gallery and loved seeing the lake district - it's somewhere I haven't explored. I'll follow you and hope you stick around.
March 3rd, 2013
I didn't know there was a limit on how long you remain with 365! Surely, you can continue for ever especially if you pay for more than one album. I don't intend giving up soon anyway!
March 3rd, 2013
Stay! Stay! I love your pictures. I'm in my 3rd year and no-ones chucked me out yet.
March 3rd, 2013
life to short if you enjoy it, keep going mate
March 3rd, 2013
I've only been on here since the end of November and ever since then I enjoyed your wonderful landscapes ( with a lot of envy) and great shots and your nice comments. Since I intend to stay at least up to day 365 I surely would miss these very much. So your question was :
So come on and let me know ! I say you should stay and never go!
(By the way did I miss out on that breaking the rule bit?)
March 3rd, 2013
*Roll eyes* Why oh why would you ask such a silly question.
STAY! Love seeing your shots and you're a good person to kid around with!
So stay with us....la la la stay with us (has to be a song out there with those lyrics)
March 3rd, 2013
Stay stay stay stay!! You live in a beautiful place and take photos that do it justice. Plus if you go, who will help the Boy with his equally great pics??? Definite stay!
March 3rd, 2013
If you stay you will be trouble... But if you go you will be double. So you should stay. I might never see the lakes otherwise!
March 3rd, 2013
I have 17 days to go and having the same dilemma ... I think I am going to stay - I have so much more to learn , it would be nice if you would join me for a 2nd year :)
March 3rd, 2013
Stay! I've only been here since 1st of Jan but I enjoy your beautiful pictures! Thing is Mark this is a bit like the Hotel California - you can check any time you like but you can never leave.... I am consumed by this site and all things photographic. Maybe it's different after a year ?
March 3rd, 2013
Had to check out your project to see why they all want you to stay. Now I know. Your photos are great- Your followers are a bit on the inactive side but your work is really nice.
March 3rd, 2013
@gemtumble you can actually go on for ever if you want to.
March 3rd, 2013
just keep posting to the same album - it goes on forever and ever (I'm in my third and know people in their 4th, 5th, 8th years!!)
March 3rd, 2013
OK that's one way to get some new followers ;-D I'm one of them!! Your shots are really wonderful.
March 3rd, 2013
@kjarn Oh really, wow that's great :-) Thank you!

March 3rd, 2013
STAY !! I have only recently caught up with you & in this short period of time I have really enjoyed your beautiful photos --STAY,STAY,STAY that is if your wife can spare you the time to indulge in your hobby !!
March 3rd, 2013
@fueast Yup, song is first thing I thought of!
March 3rd, 2013
@markjohnstone Surely that's a majority win ;-) Says an enormous amount about your photography too :-D
March 3rd, 2013
Oh definitely carry on, just keep posting no one will chuck you off if you have broken the so called non existent rules, I am in my third year & have just carried on posting.
March 3rd, 2013
There are no rules. It is your 365!
March 3rd, 2013
Stay and have more fun!
March 3rd, 2013
You seem like you don't want to go, so stay and continue snapping away :-)!!! Congrats on nearing to the finishing line....can;t wait to at least do my first year

BIG BERTHA!!! LOVE THAT IDEA
March 3rd, 2013
Fourth year and still going. No limits. Stay.
March 3rd, 2013
I'm in my third year and still here...wouldn't want to be anywhere else!!
March 3rd, 2013
I think if you continue to pay annually you can be here as long as want.
March 3rd, 2013
Why leave if you like it here?
March 3rd, 2013
Now inn my 3rd year .. am more relaxed about posting , less intense and hstill having fun , meeting great people and some very talented photographers.
March 3rd, 2013
May 1st will mark the beginning of my 4th year here! Don't sweat the small stuff :D
March 3rd, 2013
If you're still having fun, why leave? I'm halfway through my third year.
March 3rd, 2013
Great decision,Mark,carry on and enjoy!! If you can't post every day,don't worry!!
March 4th, 2013
No rules about the length. I'm in my fourth year. Just keep going as long as you like.
March 4th, 2013
Don't leave, don't change your name, just stay and keep having fun :)
March 4th, 2013
Stay of course!! I am sure your photography will continue whether you are on 365 or not and we will miss you if you go. It matters not if you cannot post every day, then post a few in one day as long as you enjoy it
March 4th, 2013
I debated and debated towards the end of my first year. I am glad I decided to continue on. This is my third year and I have learned so much through my 365 project. I love the friendly and encouraging atmosphere of this project. The decision to continue is ultimately yours. I took a look at your photos and think they are great. You have done a really good job of keeping up with your daily posting. I found it easier in my second year, because I felt freer to make my own "rules".
March 4th, 2013
"... would anyone object if I had another try at 365 or do I have to change my name to big bertha to start again "

If we say go, will you go? If we say stay, will you stay? Does it really matter what we think? Those of us who contiinue on, do so because we want to and those who drop out do so because they want to. This is your journey. You choose to go or stay because it's what you want or need to do. So, I'll assume your question is rhetorical. ;-)
March 4th, 2013
I would be gutted if you left! your photos are wonderful and I would miss them! I am now into my 3rd month of year two come on join me lets go around again!! I found it so helpful last year and basically it gives me a reason to do photography everyday, It would be so easy to slip back into the holidays and high days photos that we all seem to do.
There thats my opinion STAY!!!!!
March 4th, 2013
Mark, I had to check out all your photos after reading the remarks. I am a new follower for you. You have many awesome photos. You definitely need to stay as long as you enjoy it. @markjohnstone
