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

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 :)

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.

Sigma 35mm f/1.4

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

Must be seen on black - Hit "L"

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' !!!

Any minute now, my ship is coming in

I'll keep checking the horizon

I'll stand on the bow, feel the waves come crashing

Come crashing down, down, down, on me

 

And you say, be still my love

Open up your heart

Let the light shine in

But don't you understand

I already have a plan

I'm waiting for my real life to begin

 

When I awoke today, suddenly nothing happened

But in my dreams, I slew the dragon

And down this beaten path, and up this cobbled lane

I'm walking in my old footsteps, once again

And you say, just be here now

Forget about the past, your mask is wearing thin

Let me throw one more dice

I know that I can win

I'm waiting for my real life to begin

 

Any minute now, my ship is coming in

I'll keep checking the horizon

And I'll check my machine, there's sure to be that call

It's gonna happen soon, soon, soon

It's just that times are lean

 

And you say, be still my love

Open up your heart, let the light shine in

Don't you understand

I already have a plan

I'm waiting for my real life to begin
