The *Official* Post Your Flickr "Favorites" Thread

[Tom Lowe]

I am always looking for visual inspiration, and still photography is a great source.

This is a thread where you post your favorite shots from other photogs on Flickr. Please post the 500-pixel regular pic, and then link to the image's main page. To do this, right-click and find the url of the image, lop off the "?v=0" part, then post the image. After that, hotlink the image's main Flickr page to the image.

Examples:

Your post code will look something like this:

<URL="http://www.flickr.com/photos/amaw/264953282/"><IMG]http://farm1.static.flickr.com/86/264953282_7c3d56d4b3.jpg</IMG></URL>

But the < and > will be replaced by [ and ].

That's a pretty cool idea, Tom. Thanks for making it happen. I definitely like the prospects!

:)

[Tom Lowe]

Thanks, Tico. My hope is to learn about some great photos and photographers.

Despite it's obvious shortcomings, Flickr is perhaps the world's largest photography museum.

I learn a lot browsing through it, just randomly. That's why your idea would provide a more "targeted" or "focused" approach to worthy material.

Excellent.

A couple of images from one of my favorites, Valeria (http://www.flickr.com/people/valerias/). I love her beautiful, alluring use of natural light .
