I’m Josh. I’m a photographer in my 30s. Here are a few basic things to know about me and my journal: * Photography is both my income, hobby, and passion. Consequently the vast majority of my posts are photos. I post photos to mark events, share what I see, and enjoy a personal memory here and there. Unless I’m asking for it I’m generally not looking for a critique. I love comments on photos if they resonate with you, but you aren’t under any obligation. My journal is mostly photos, and I typically post one a day. * I’m a liberal, agnostic, childless, pet-less, 100% sober individual. If your views on life are super traditional we are likely not going to click. My journal is by no means political, but those are my leanings in case you were wondering. * I’m more emotional than the average guy, I’d like to think I’m a very caring and good friend to the people on LJ I connect with. Of course that part is subjective. I have a lot of friends on my list that are struggling with serious issues. I used to say that I wasn’t looking for anymore friends suffering from depression simply because it was too hard for me to have to read about sadness all of the time without internalizing a bit. I guess now I’m more to a stage of - if you have a problem in your life that is big that you aren’t trying to improve upon, I would ask that you skip me. If you are working it out, and could use some support - I like helping. I go through some dark moods myself, I think everyone does. I do try to remain somewhat positive. * Sometimes I rant about business stuff in my journal. I absolutely love my job and I don’t want to do anything else, but like any job it has it’s ups and downs. * I love really getting to know people on LJ, and even though sometimes that can be hard with so many great people living so far away I do think it’s ultimately worth it. I’m not opposed to connecting on more than one level of social media and I’ve met quite a few people from here in my time. * I comment when I feel like it, and if you write in massive text clumps I tend to avoid those entries. Give me some paragraph breakups and I am more likely to chime in. If you are keeping a tally count on comments and like to do friends cuts a lot I’m probably too laid back for you. * Due to the nature of my business a lot of my life is fairly public on the internet. I ask that whatever I talk about in my journal stays there.
