Pork, garlic bread, baked potatoes, and beer.

Ignore the fruit. That is part of my daily snacks for the next day. A banana at "mid day", and two apples throughout the day.

My grandfather lived to see 90 years on this earth. Rest on, u will be missed.

This one was even tougher to put together: I had a really hard time getting Xiamara to stand. And to kneel... It still isn't exactly right and never would have worked if it hadn't been for the floating avatar in the foreground.

 

There are 5 photographs in the background this time and again, they all come from www.sxc.hu/.

 

And the the poses are by Frigg Ragu. Of course!

When I came downstairs in the morning a few days ago my daughter said she had a surprise for me. She showed me these “flowers” that she picked for me sitting on the table. I appreciated her thoughtfulness and seeing beauty even in weeds....I thought they were beautiful weeds too.

What we are protesting is this newly proposed beta page layout -

which would soon take effect. I think I got enough from this current

flickr page. I don't mind the black background , it's ok with me but whenever

I download a page , it takes much longer which is a pain .The overall

appearance of a flickr page at the moment with all the pictures isn't

that nice, I have to put up with it. If you've seen or tried the Beta page

it's adding more agony into the injury . The comment section which

is layed out on the right hand side of the photo is too cramped up , has a

a small space for description and the comment section can only display

a limited few. This beta page is a stretch towards the breaking threshold

anyone can bear up with.

I just love the old way flickr

used to be for years. This may not be reflective of everyone's

preference . I am not against change ok, but if only flickr

could give us few options how we present our pages.

  

Those who wish to join in the protest should not upload any image on the

8th of December except an all in black dominated image , either of your creation

or you can copy the image floating around flickr also with more info and links from :

 

www.flickr.com/photos/anujnair/11166980463/

 

... and post it on your page .

  

Also you can sign in the petition advocated by Toby Tenma ,

hoping to get at least 10,000 signatures calling for the old

flickr page back or at the least if flickr can give us back

the options. This has to be delivered to the Flickr CEO Marissa

Mayer . If we share the same sentiments with the spirit

of solidarity and would like to call out flickr's attention you

can click : HERE

  

*Marissa Mayer's flickr site

 

Still have the same drift ? You can get this viral quick . Please, please

please , spread the news

to as many people on flickr , that'll be great !

 

At least we tried :)

  

Thank you :)

Glasgow, Scotland; 04.08.2014

M Monochrom; 50mm Summarit

I’ve admired a lot of Street Photography on Flickr for a while now and always wanted to give it a go. I recently took a trip to York so I thought I’d give it a go, I hung my camera around my neck and had at it with my remote control.

 

Admittedly, I realised I had to learn a lot from the process, my main problem is capturing people as there walking towards me, a lot of the shots I got was of people walking away from me which I should have been more aware of, but, it was a learning experience if nothing else.

 

Seems I got something right with this one at least; Explored > www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/2012/9/11/page29 <

 

(Now dropped)

ok this one is a bit old, like 1year old, but I loved it so yeah that's me.

This caught my eye as I prepared supper a few nights ago—the birthday candles that had been washed and were left on the kitchen counter.

Next to the Salisbury Arms, one of the oldest Hotel and Public House in Hertford, stands this charming Dutch designed blue bike. I like the simplicity of the composition with the parking warden wandering down Fore Street looking for unwitting custom, there is an irony in this snap.

The final editing was in Adobe Photoshop Express which helped me accentuate the dull day with the blue of the bike matching the roof of the Corn Exchange further down Fore Street.

This image is straight from the camera. As you can see it looks like a black and white photograph. I included the top left corner to prove that there was colour.

so that's it, my cat Toshi got trapped in the infamous trick and the funniest part is: he got himself in there on his own xD ahahhahahahah <3

Con la nuova piattaforma Beta il Team di Flickr ha intenzione di apportare delle ulteriori modifiche che limiteranno pesantemente gli interscambi tra users:

 

1 - Non ci sarà più uno spazio bianco sotto le foto per le descizioni, commenti o inviti ai gruppi

2 - Difficile scrivere un commento che contenga più di 3 parole

3 - Non possiamo vedere chi favorisce le nostre foto

4 - Non possiamo vedere in quali gruppi appare la foto

5 - Le immagini degli award non saranno visibili

6 - Gli inviti non saranno più visibili. Gli ultimi appariranno solo in Attività Recente, gli altri andranno perduti.

7 - Per gli Admin diventerà impossibile gestire i gruppi per cui molti chiuderanno.

8 - Le nostre descrizioni, incluse citazioni, link a YouTube o altri siti saranno nascoste

 

IMPOSSIBILE QUALUNQUE INTERSCAMBIO, NESSUNA VISIBILITA' !!!

In the spirit of how it all started...or the way it used to be...or something...

 

I remember when Flickr was all there was to share images online (at least as far as I knew). I may have started out thinking "art" but as I moved through the learning process of making photos, and as I found myself around community, I started sharing images of actual life. I guess it was like what people kind of do on Instagram now...maybe...sort of? Anyway, interspersed with pinholes, Holgas, weird double exposure instant photos, there would be photos of dinner, or a holiday with the family, or a vacation hotel room...or late at night in bed unable to sleep perhaps. In many ways it was all the same...the art and other stuff (because I'll be honest, I would often pick out the best images, or perhaps do some adjustments so it was on par quality wise...or so I thought). And while that's been standard part of my photo sharing m.o., there have been times when I've done it much less.

 

Anyway, it's 6 pm-ish and I'm already in my pjs. I spent the better part of the day playing catch up with all the leaves in my yards. I got it almost all done....just a patch out back I left until tomorrow because it was getting dark. The shower I just took was about as hot as I could stand and I'm relaxing here with a heating pad on my back. I have some art journal play/experiment I intend to do, maybe watch something to keep me company, and that will be my evening.

 

Tomorrow is another day, with more to do, and it's strange times but I'm doing okay.
