  <description>just a way to collect my favorite animal photos and images (painted, drawn, created with computer programs) here on ipernity.  my favorites list is so large that i sometimes miss getting to see just the animals.  please suggest only animal photos that are special animals to you and photos that really show off that animal well.</description>

    <description>&lt;p class="who"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.ipernity.com/home/raingirl"&gt;raingirl&lt;/a&gt; has started a discussion:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="description"&gt;Hi!  I'm back from my winter trip.  I hope everyone had a grand December.  I'm ready for 2020 to be full of wonderful experiences and cool photos.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would like to encourage people to comment on other photos in the group.  Perhaps especially ones that don't have many comments - we all love to be noticed.  I try to comment on each photo that comes into my groups, but I can't ever keep up with them all.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Personally, I enjoy constructive comments as well as accolades and personal thoughts on my photos.  I know that some people aren't looking for constructive comments - hopefully if they receive some from me they will let me know and I will remove my comment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Feel free to comment on this discussion!  I'm happy to have a conversation around photos, rules, cats, chocolate, music, etc...&lt;/div&gt;</description>
