I personally (not professionally) also find the images distracting. But they're not offensive or derogatory.
Would you rather have images of cities, people smiling, and maybe a car or two? Or maybe you want a picture of a green forest or whatever? Those are the same pictures in many businesses' posts but they're also just as irrelevant and therefore just as unprofessional. The contrast is that the business should be professional while this blog post is a personal site.
God forbid someone add their own flair to their own personal opinions. Thankfully God doesn't exist, so it's not forbidden. You're just being rude.
It is a personal blog post. It's just an opinion, man. The topic could be professional, but it isn't. That doesn't make the topic any less interesting.
