This blog surpassed 40,000 views yesterday.
As I have frequently done in the past, I want to thank all of you who visit this Blog for your support. I am humbled and blown away by your interest every day. I also feel very fortunate that such an excellent, photo friendly and easy to use Blog platform like WordPress exists.
Thank you for your likes, your follows and for taking the time to share your outstanding comments.
I have electronically met so many talented, interesting and encouraging people from around the world and even from across the county in which I live. I have seen so much inspiring work in the last year simply because I started regularly blogging and because others took the time to share their work. The faces of some of this Blog’s fantastic followers can be seen above.
Nearly 95 percent of the views on this site have occurred over the last 14 months since ISBAA went daily.
For anyone reading this who has not started a Blog but might be considering it I only have one question : what are you waiting for?
Thank you! Rob
I See Beauty All Around 
I enjoy your blog because most of your photography is local, as is mine. You don’t have to travel to exotic locations to see beauty. Congratulations.

Wonderful Rob 😉 I might not comment often, but I always enjoy your posts. Yours is one of the first blogs I think I followed when I finally figured out what The Reader was. OK I was a little slow at figuring out how to find the WP Gold.

Thanks So much Kelly. It took me a while to get up to speed on the ins and outs of WordPress too. I think I had been blogging daily for a couple before a friend told me about the Weekly Photo Challenge and Daily Challenges. Thanks for your very kind words!
