Big changes

Isn't life exciting? I've now added a pretty picture of myself, in my garden leaning against the big apple tree. And, thanks to Margaret, I've also added a new Photoblogs link to Dirk Paessler's Photo Blog. It appears to be regularly updated and contains some very nice photography.

Boring blogging

Well, my blog has never been that exiting. In fact, I've recently been thinking of deleting it and having it done with. Which brings me to the original point I wanted to make. I deleted five links from my blog list today. They've had no posts for about a year or so, one just bored me, one had not even been used for two years. I think the fad is starting to wear off. I don't have a single photo blog now. Does anybody know a photo-related blog with regular posts and good pictures?
