For the Top Flickr Photos of 2016, we sorted through billions of uploads to arrive at these favorites.
To compile this list, we started with an algorithm that calculates a combination of social and engagement metrics. To avoid the results being merely a popularity contest, the selection also involved curation by Flickr staff.
Where photos from the same community members appeared multiple times in the algorithmic ranking, we’ve selected one of their top-scoring images to represent their work.

The water buffalo or domestic Asian water buffalo is a large bovine animal, frequently used as livestock in Laos and southern Asia. All the domestic varieties and breeds descend from one common ancestor, the Wild Water Buffalo, which is now an endangered species. Buffalo are used as draft, meat, and dairy animals. Their dung is used as a fertilizer and as a fuel when dried. Adult Water Buffalo range in size from 400 to 900 kg. Here on Don Khong the water buffalo is still used for ploughing rice fields. Water buffalo behavior sometimes differs from cattle. For example, most water buffaloes are not trained to be driven. Instead, the herdsman must walk alongside or ahead of them. They then instinctively follow. They also rub against trees more often than cattle do, and they sometimes de-bark the trees causing them to die. Water buffalo spend much of their day submerged in the muddy waters. Water buffalo also prefer to feed in grasslands on grass and herbs. Many farmers in Laos own water buffalo(es) for plowing the land for farming, and one of the questions that my kid were asked was, ‘How many teeth does a water buffalo have on top and bottom?’ I think it doesn’t take a genius to answer this question, but it does take a real farmer because most of us don’t pay much attention to water buffaloes even when they’re smiling at us. Most people just assumed that water buffaloes have a full set of teeth on top and bottom, but the ones in Laos only have teeth on the bottom, please correct me if yours have teeth on top! Water Buffaloes are color blind, therefore it’s not wise to wear bright color clothing around them, if you don’t want to get chased by one.
In Laos, one of the poorest countries in Southeast Asia, domesticated water buffalo are used plowing rice fields, for their meat, hides, and milk, and also and transportation. The buffalo is a classic work animal of Asia. Photo taken on the Mekong island Don Det - Southern Laos.
Een waterbuffel of karbouw is een groot rund. Het is met afstand de bekendste en meest wijdverbreide soort Aziatische buffel. In het wild komt het dier nog voor maar is een bedreigd diersoort. Daarnaast wordt de waterbuffel veel als werkdier gehouden, bijvoorbeeld voor het ploegen van de rijstvelden, met name in Azië. Volwassenen dieren kunnen 300 tot 1200 kg zwaar worden. Waterbuffels kunnen zo'n 25 jaar oud worden. De melk van de waterbuffel wordt door vele volkeren gedronken. De melk heeft een hoog vetgehalte. Verder wordt de waterbuffel vooral gebruikt als trekdier voor de ploeg in rijstplantages. Het vlees wordt in bepaalde gebieden gegeten als vervanging voor rundvlees. De huid levert taai en nuttig leer. De regentijd is een druk seizoen voor de boeren, nu is de tijd om rijst aan te planten, de kinderen hebben drie maanden schoolvakantie en kunnen daardoor meehelpen op de velden. Hier en daar ligt een waterbuffel zijn kostje te herkauwen of baddert wat in het modderige water.

One of the most vibrant hot spots in Tokyo is certainly Ginza Crossing in the more upscale part of Tokyo. Here the amount of commercial banners, illuminated signs and advertising billboards is just overwhelming.

We call these things Chair-O-Planes in Ireland but I am not sure what they are called in the US. Wikipedia says they are also called swing carousels or wave swingers but I have never heard these terms.
