Well, that's it. I clicked the cancel button. I am gone as of tomorrow midnight. But, before I go, I have something I have to say. I have expressed this before over the years, to some of you in person, but never on here. I feel the people who run this site, should they bother to read this, should know something:

Missy is a shitty photographer. Her sets are unispired and boring. I don't think she could direct a model out of a wet paper bag. Now, I know there can be a deluge of comebacks counter-attacking me. I do not make a living on my photography, you might say, and she does. Actually, no she doesn't. She makes a living off what was a novel idea a few years ago, then caught on. For whatever part of the initial idea that became SG she had a part of, I give her credit. But not her skills or talent, or lack thereof, in photography. No, I do not have a website that I can point you all to show you my work, but I know it is head and shoulders above hers because, for one, I can vary my angles, lighting, and subject framing much better then she can. Not to mention that she does not know how to best shoot a model to flatter her strong points or de-emphasize less flattering aspects of her figure. If I tried hard enough, I could probably find more things to say. Hell, all I'd have to do would be to go look at one of her sets to find new inpiration in mediocre photography. Truth is, bland photographers are a dime a dozen so she is just one in a crowd. Shooting beautiful women and putting them up for all to see does not a great photographer make. Maybe Lithium Picnic will take pity on her and give her a few lessons.

Oh, don't get me wrong. This is not the only reason I am leaving. Not even close. If I was subjected to one of her sets every day, then maybe, but it is just one more factor in a growing list of things I have become increasingly dissatisfied with over the past year or more. I have been vocal about it, as well, so this is no shock. What it...

I have been vocal about it, as well, so this is no shock. What it boils down to is that the evolution of the site, especially since it got really big, has gone in a direction that I feel is counter to what it's main goal was. Again, I have said this before. Coupled with the not too distant SG Boston fall-out, and other points I have expressed here as well, all equate to me feeling lilke my money is better served elsewhere.

See ya in the funny pages.
