Status Update: 11.12.2022
It's been quite some time since the last journal, but I feel like I want to write a new one. I haven't been on DeviantArt too much in the last few years. The key reason these days is the absence of categories. As a landscape and architecture photographer I'm not interested in seeing portraits and street photography. I'd rather love to browse through the abstracts, architecture and APN categories. Good old days. In the last months it feels there is more going on in the DeviantArt community, which is really good. DA still has a special place in my heart. My photography wouldn't be where it is without this project. That's why I will always be thankful. Life has had ups and downs this year.

But I've also been shooting local subjects a lot more than in the last years. The last weeks have been rough. I was in Thailand with my gf as an educational trip

Photography on DA was way more experimental. Here are some examples.

No need to be perfect, just pure creativity.
Anyway, how are you
The fall of DeviantArt
Dear DeviantArt admins,
just in case you wonder why almost all serious photographers vanished from your site, take a look at the front page for the photography section and scroll down a bit...

Remember - this is the front page. This is what is displayed to me every time I come to the site. I cannot switch Daily Deviantions permanently, it always gets back to "Whats hot". What a literal coincidence.
Porn industry infiltrated your site. This didn't happen over night, it was a process of years. And you didn't do anything about it.
Why am I writing this instead of just switching to another art community? Because DeviantArt m
