What Would You Like to See in My Photography Blog?


If you read ‘What’s News 3’ last Thursday, you might recall I said there was something said about a new type of post for Fridays. Well, first let me apologise for the complete lack of any post at all on Friday. There has been some drama of late and I couldn’t get to any kind of blogging until today. And, frankly, I don’t think my Friday idea is going to hold water. Let me give you the details.
I have been going to Kickstarter about once a week to check out some of the potential new tech on the photographic horizon, and there has been some very interesting stuff. So, what I thought I would do would be to share some of these new gadgets with you, say two each week, and help you find out about stuff that might be just what you need, or want, or can afford to drop $50 on! The problem, I discovered, is that to give you all the pertinent information on the product I would need to contact the developer and ask some questions. I would then need to wait until I got their response, see what they had to say and decide what to do with it. 
The problem comes from the fact that I am a photographer who is writing a blog, not a blogger that takes photos, so I want to be out taking photos not spending all my time doing blog research. But, as I started this blog and have committed myself to writing three times a week, I thought I would put it to you guys and girls because you are the ones I’m writing for. So, I have three ideas for my Friday blog post. I want you guys to tell me which one you would prefer. Here they are:
  1. I go ahead with the Kickstarter project. I budget out my time to make allowances for the correspondence and do what I described earlier.
  2. I keep note of all the new things I try, techniques that work, ideas that don’t work, stuff I read. Each Friday I give you a rundown on on these and share what I learned about photography with you. This was my original idea for this blog, so it kinda makes sense to actually bloody do it, doesn’t it?
  3. Do what I said in number 2, but make it about videography and vlogging. I figure that, while I’m learning about it, I should probably share what I learn with you. Who knows, maybe you can give me some tips, maybe I will give you the answer you’ve been needing? Of course, I could also just blend number 2 and number 3 together…
What do think? Which one would you prefer I went with? Or do you have an idea that I haven’t thought of? Pick whichever idea appeals to you most, and post a comment with just that number in it. For example, I like number 2 so my post would just be “2” or, if I’m feeling energetic, “two”. If you have another idea, though, I’m afraid you’ll have to go into a little more detail!
Hang on! Something else just occurred to me so…
4) Alternate weeks between all three ideas.
So, give me you thoughts! Comments, please!

See ya later!
