COMPLEXITY OF SIMPLICITY - (selected by FLICKR EXPLORE)

****This photograph was chosen on January 26th 2014 to appear on FLICKR EXPLORE(Highest Ranking: #169) . This is my Nineteenth photograph to be selected, my Tenth of the New Year which I am amazed and delighted by as I never view my images as worthy compared to some of the amazing photography out there. EXPLORE is Flickr's way of showcasing the most interesting photos within a given point in time -- usually over a 24 hour period.

 

 

Flickr receives about 6,000 uploads every minute -- That's about 8.6 million photos a day! From this huge group of images, the Flickr Interestingness algorithm chooses only 500 images to showcase for each 24-hour period. That's only one image in every 17,000!..... so I am really thrilled to have a frame picked and most grateful to everyone who visited, favourite and commented on the frame*****
