RE: Change the frame, change the game
I prefer images taken by the writer of a blog post to stock images from, say, pixabay.
I do too. This is why I pretty much only use my own images, even if not wholly fitting.
but often personal images tell you much more, even when you don't fully realise it.
Indeed.
I find this point of view pretty interesting from my own perspective. Since I never use pictures, photos, illustrations or images of any sort in my posts and content unless it's very closely ingrained and related to the textual context of my speech & message.
Yeah! you can say I only use images in my articles with the exclusive intention to save me and save to you an awful torrent of overwhelming extra words you would have to READ.
It always has been pretty hard to me use images just as mere ornaments or as a metaphorical rest while you scale up the sinuous ladder of my weird discourse. };)
To each their own, but when it comes to the social/personal aspect of things, I find that self-taken images add context to the creator, not just the piece. It would depend on what is being written though, but I generally put a fair bit of me into what I write, and connect more with the human side of a post over the content side.
Yeah! I agree with that!! ...the social/personal aspect of things. Certainly!
Said here, by someone whose communicational perspective has never really depended on the use of images but on the lexicon and vocabulary to sneakily try to spread and deposit the exotic seeds that are in his peculiar mind. Give Thanks to God that English is not my native language!! :)
