CalNaturePhoto Going OffLine
May 21st, 2007 by Steven
This site has been on line for a month and a half now. In that time it has grown quite a bit. I have a steady following of visitors and I have put a lot of hard work into the articles that I’ve written. But it has also put a lot of pressure on me. And pressure and stress don’t help creativity. I know that many of the newer visitors to CalNatuePhoto may never have heard of me before they came here, but I have had a presence on the web since 1999 when my site SierraVisions.com went online. Over the last month and a half I have been trying to keep both sites updated with fresh content on a consistent basis and it’s become way to much work. I also have a photography and graphic arts business that I run and the creativity that goes into them has began to suffer. So something has to give. And that something is CalNaturePhoto.
This will be the last post on CalNautrePhoto. I’m going to let this site go. SierraVisions.com will become my main focus again. Now if you have enjoyed what you’ve read here, then come on over to SierraVisions, I will be continuing everything I’ve done here over there. I will continue to do photoshop tutorials, photo tours, and updates on the hotspots in California photography. I will also be writing more e-books about where to shoot in California.
At the moment SierraVisions is a little out of date. In fact, it’s an antique. I don’t have RSS feeds on there or all of the other toys of the modern web, but I’m working on that. SierraVisions in the process of a major overhaul and will be totally Web 2.0 compatible in the very near future.
So I’m hoping that all of you who have enjoyed CalNaturePhoto will come join us over at SierraVisions. I wish this site could have made it, but the work of keeping two major sites updated has created a situation that I didn’t foresee when I started it.
Take care and thanks for the support you’ve shown to a California Nature Photographers Journal. I hope to see you over at SierraVisions.com
