I value sincerity and constructive feedback from the many talented photographers on flickr. Minimal to no post-editing of images. All photos are either protected by copyright or under a Creative Commons license. Fully copyrighted images (All Rights Reserved) may not be copied, downloaded or published on any website, blog or periodical without explicit permission and consent from the copyright owner! Contact me directly with inquiries regarding copyrighted works.

Observations:

1. The most faved and viewed photos on flickr are not necessarily the most qualitative or thoughtfully composed images.

2. Meaningful comments that go beyond "nice pic," "beautiful capture," or "perfect snap," are a rarity but still exist.

3. The site experiences technical difficulties at times; however, flickr staff is prompt with help and feedback.

4. When compared to other image sharing sites, flickr is still the best in terms of image resolution, design and engagement.
