And so it ends (for now)
Via Flickr:
These are my favourites, not because of technical skill, but because I like them. That’s it.
(Click on photos to go to bigger versions on my Flickr page.)
It’s time to take a break after ± 500 days of blogging here on WordPress:
524 posts;
± 109 000 views all-time
± 5450 comments;
± 5670 spam comments (!?!);
476 followers;
4 “Freshly Presseds”;
and 1.4Gb of photos uploaded.
I’ll miss it, but I’ll be back – perhaps after a 50-day break: 10% of my total blogging days. (A friend, Nicola Lotter, suggested that). But who knows – it all depends on how my schedule looks, and how inspired I feel.
It’s been real. See you on the other side …

I'd love to hear from you. Please leave a comment.
They called me weed
I have been blogging here since around April 2011 - my little place on the blogosphere to express myself creatively. As a teenager I used to write a diary - in fact, as a 17-year-old living in Belgium, I wrote religiously every day. Fortunately the Internet didn't exist back then because my ramblings as a teenager were ever-so-slightly dark, cynical and depressing. You won't find much of that here. Also, mostly, I try not to get too deep or philosophical in this forum - I'd like my photography to uplift and inspire, and, where I can, I try to bring a bit of humour into my writing too. I've been fortunate enough to travel extensively and have made many friends across the globe. This is my spot to keep in touch with them.
i am so going to miss looking at life through your eyes – i do hope you come back soon! thanks for all the laughs and fabulous photos!
euh, je ne peux pas aimer ce post,
je vais d’abord profiter de relire ceux que j’ai juste parcouru en vitesse faute de temps, mais ça va me sembler bizarre de ne plus gueter tes mots dans ma boîte mail chaque jour,
peu importe, c’est la vie, comme tu dis…
à très bientôt
Je suis désolé. C’était très difficile pour moi d’arrêter à cause de gens comme toi – des amis à l’étranger. Oui, à très bientôt …
Shucks i will miss your blog for a while. I’ll keep a close eye on your flickr just in case, no pressure!
You know how I feel about it…sigh…I understand though, and I’ll keep sending fudge to bank up some credit for when you start again
OOooooohhh Fudge..maybe i should start writing a blog too
I can’t imagine it will be for long ( and everyone hopes it will not). I do think you have blogging in your blood, or were born with a pen in hand, or whatever expression fits best. God bless….
I will miss reading your blog each day…It is one of the few that comes to my email and one that I enjoy reading each day! I love your pictures and will miss them. I hope your blogging vacation is a short one.
Thank you everyone… I sure hope to be back soon…
Well done Robin! I just spoke with someone tonight, and she said how your blog has inspired her, and lifted her spirit. I had to agree with her. Many days your blog has brought me a much needed laugh, an enjoyment of beauty, or a touch of real. I will miss it, but that is my selfish part. My other part says well done. You have done well! And you will do well!
Enjoy your break Mr!
You’ve surely had a lot of visitors. I’m blogging and blogging, but for a tiny audience
So much for giving up your blog to concentrate on work!
Hilarious, right?
I hope you are not really quitting or at least not for long. Your blog and Esther’s are the only ones I read every day. I love your writing AND your pictures.
