Recap 2015 Day 2

Red Alert! This photo was taking on a rainy day during last summer 2015 and was one of my first "Indoor" shoots. It proved popular because of the stark colour contrast between image and background

Hello Folks, welcome back to my 2nd day of my 30 day post challenge. Today I want to continue my discussion about my time so far on Instagram. Of all the Social Media platforms I've started in the last few months this one I found to be the easiest for me. Actually I've let it slip a bit since I've started blogging and thats something I'll be correcting going forward in 2016.

Instagram I have found to be like having in your care a new born baby. The more you nurture it the bigger it grows but let it slack even for a week or so and you can see the effect within days as you slowly disappear from sight.

I post on Instagram every second day and  thats not  enough. This is something I'll be addressing also in the next few days or so. Most people post every day and a lot several times a day. Going forward in 2016 my goal is to post once daily.

I don't recommend posting several times per day as the last thing you want to do is pack up someone else's feed. I find it very annoying when the same people post twenty similar pics several times a day.

It blocks my feed and prevents me from viewing the photos that interest me. As a result of this kind of traffic and having giving the "Culprit" several chances to redeem him/herself  I'm afraid it usually ends with the "Offender" being axed by the dreaded "Unfollow" button.

So my advice to all those out there thinking of starting on Instagram this year is DON'T DO IT!

I'll continue our little discussion tomorrow. Until then

Take Care. Here's more popular photos from my account from 2015.

Another popular photo. This one an accessory close-up. Good colour contrast between purple flower hair accessory and black hair made this photo stand out.
