    Hi There!! Sorry to write it here but there is no way i can send you a private message so… 😀

    btw, This is Neena from favoritepasstime.wordpress.com. I just wanted to let you know personally that i have made some minor changes in my blog.

    But First, I would like to take this opportunity to “Thank you” for showing me your love and support by liking and posting comments on my artwork and photography posts. Now, about the minor change i have made in my blog. If you remember, i had one blog where i used to upload all my artwork and photography. I always
    found it a bit congested. So, i have made a new blog named
    “favoritepasstimephotography.wordpress.com” where as the name suggests all my photography posts will be uploaded from now on.

    I REQUEST you to like and re-like the old post in your spare time. I will truly appreciate it. And don’t forget to follow the new blog too. 🙂

    Thank you again and have a great day (or night)!
    Stay strong and be happy…!!!
