The problem with the written word vs the spoken word is the
lack of voice inflection, etc.
I NEVER want to appear arrogant or conceited. This was a
serious question and not meant
to be bragging in any way. Just because I have a stack of
prints does not mean that any
of them are any good. Just because I like something doesn't
mean that any of them are
any good. It's just that after having put some distance
between myself and making the
photo I find that it is easier to be more objective.
I am interested in learning how other people view their own
work. It was a serious question
with a hopefully humorous preface...
Maybe I should try the Scotch!
Thanks!

Well, I've had the same experience with both pictures
and writing. That is seeing them after a long time and
thinking they were pretty good. I occassionally come across
something I've written on a web site and not recognized it
at first.
Raymond Chandler (wrote Philip Marlowe) wrote in one of
his letters that he read one of his own novels on a train
trip years after writing it and thought it was pretty good.
