Lost in Translation

To those keeping an eye on Best Photo Blog Polls to which I was generously nominated and included in Round 5, I would like to explain my decision to withdraw and apologize to everybody who voted for me and to people whose rating has suffered as a result of my withdrawal from the race.

My rating greatly upset one of the Round 5 contestants to the extent that he accused me of faking my results and verbally attacked me, which has made me very upset and sad so I decided to take myself off the poll.
I don’t want any bad experience to spoil my joy of blogging and interacting with some of amazing bloggers out there, nor do I need any more stress and attacks in my life that is stressful enough as it is.

I wanted to give the votes assigned to me to a great photographer and blogger on the Round 5 list, but I understand that that would imply manipulation of votes.
Once again a big thank you to my generous followers and voters.
