Featured Photos: Do I see a pattern developing?
Today is the third day that the photo above has been a featured photo on Xanga’s front page. Last summer, the photo below had that status for a while.
It seems odd to me that my wet grass photos are the only ones to gain recognition. If this marks a trend, my fame is at its end because there’s nowhere to go beyond just a single drop on one blade of grass. If it is just a general pattern and not a developing trend, think how famous I could be if I had a lawn and running water.
To be fair, these are not the only shots of mine to be featured on Xanga. There was one of a spider, but that was shot down quickly, by someone who fears arachnids, with a comment of, “eeeeewww,” and a one-star score. I’m staying alert for an opportunity to capture a dewy spider web, with or without its attendant arachnid.
UPDATE: Tuesday, June 3, 2008 — The One Drop shot spent four days on Xanga’s front page and as of this morning had been viewed 1125 times.
