Who cares about your work?

[Michel Hardy-Vallée]

Well, some people just asked for it... (there was a url link here which no longer exists)

But frankly, who gives the attention your work demands? Are you lonesome or famous?

 

[Poco]

I voted "friends," but they might just be faking it

 

[argus]

Friends and family and, honestly, I don't think they're faking ;-)

[modafoto]

Friends and family...They truly like it...otherwise they wouldn't come back and have me shooting then again and again...

 

[blansky]

My customer and me.


Public at large? Lots of compliments but in reality they don't mean too much to me.

Merely lip service until they become my customer.

[Woolliscroft]

My publisher.

David.

 

[medform-norm]

The state funding body that keeps giving us grants to live off and continue our work... although they don't know yet about our new infatuation. Hmmm.

A contemporary art museum that bought one of our works....

other customers and clients.

Suppose we can't complain. But no one likes our work they way we do.

 

[Charles Webb]

Absolutely no one! I frankly am not bothered by that fact. I don't even care for some of my own images! On ocassion I have asked myself why am I doing this, my self didn't know either.

 

[Graeme Hird]

Pity we couldn't choose more than one option in the poll. I chose the public, but in reality it should have been all of them - myself first, followed by the others in that list.

 

[fingel]

Probably no one but me.

 

[bobfowler]

I interpreted "public at large" to mean my employer and my clients.

 

[jjstafford]

Why is there no choice for "my employer"?

 

[Ole]

I voted "my family" - but of course they only get to see a few of the ones I care about myself. If I don't care, they're not pictures.

 

[bjorke]

The nice man at B&H that sells me bulk rolled Tri-X.

 

[Michel Hardy-Vallée]

Erhm, ah, huh, well, because huh, nobody makes money out of photography, there you go! At least I don't. Didn't occured to me.

 

[Thomassauerwein]

No one but the venders.

 

[bobfowler]

No one but the venders.

That's the best response yet...

 

[atenlaugh]

When I saw the title of this thread, I momentarily thought the sentiment was:

"Who cares about you and your stupid 'photography'?"

Made me laugh.

A polling amateur! Leave it to a pro next time... LOL!

Art.

 

[anyte]

I think I'm all alone with my photography. Perhaps when my son is older he'll care too.

 

[Ed Sukach]

Nah!! I care - and I think we ALL care about each others' work.

That wasn't a choice in the survey, though.

<g> Of course when you do them all the time, you start becoming good at them </g>

 

[Carol]

Just me.

Ok, my son and a few hundred strangers then.
