RE: The Seven Day B&W Challenge - Day Seven

in #photography7 years ago

So profound! The image speaks to my very soul. Having the pineapple as the sole subject has numerous implications that I couldn't even begin to enumerate. The sharp, uninviting exterior, betrays the fact that the fruit encased inside is a succulent bounty of sweet and sour. Much like in life, it isn't our place to judge other people's exterior. If we take enough time to carve through their facade, we could discover the rich and vivid personality they hold in their core.

Every bite of the pineapple is worth savoring, not unlike the many moments in life that we may take for granted. We need to squeeze every last drop, ever passing second that our borrowed time allows. Only then do we fully realize the potential that has been given to us. Great subject for the final day!

Damn! Man, where did that come from? Listen, you gotta write another story soon... The sheer talent you have with expressive imagination and rich wording is ridiculous.

You are amazing, my bro!

Haha I don't know about that. I have written stories, but I'm thinking if I should publish them on Steemit. Fiction isn't what it used to be here Cliques and groups have really put a damper on the whole experience. It's hard being excluded from all the comment action haha

I hear you, bro. But I see this making serious headway next year. Continue to leave your mark of excellence on Steemit. The readers will come. As hard as it is, try to steer clear of "Steemit politics". Concentrate on "you" first and foremost. You've garnered some incredible friends and respect here.

Yeah, exactly, that's why I'm seriously thinking of moving on from this platform. It often seems like if I don't have a certain username, or high enough SP or reputation, people won't even bother opening my posts. Especially now with the incoming new members, more people are going to be making it all about themselves. No place in the Steemit sea for an old minnow like me haha

I'm proud of the friends I've gathered through the comments. Their continued support is what keeps me coming back. Once I figure out a way to continue the communication beyond the platform then it's all good.
