It’s my greatest creative outlet, a dog with a camera.
Like days in a row. I’m out of the gate with getting back to not only posting my daily taken photos daily but even blogging about them. It was not a big number of photos today, maybe 8 taken, four tossed. My pick? The first one. When I went out side to wave bye to […]
It’s still my daily habit. I cannot let go of it. 2020 marks the 13th year I have been posting daily photos to flickr, and dropping them to into the 366photos group — heck the 4th round it’s been a leap year. That first one was a leap, hence it’s a wrong URL 3 years […]
In every project, playful remix, and blog post I do I am on the prowl for open licensed images. There’s an ever increasing number of sites where you find these. They are far from equivalent. There is some kind of profit game out there, byt would guess it’s ad-driven. Thus, Google’s allure is the tail […]
It happens so often and ends up being blogged that I’ve tagged this phenomenon freetousewonders. I open a new browser tab in Chrome and the Library Congress Free to Use Extension knocks on my curiosity door with a random public domain image. This time, what you might see as a blank white screen of nothingness, […]
Following up from last month (nobody is tracking me) for this 13th year of daily photos I am trying to do my cleanup and review each month, thus saving me hours of labor in December. Yeah right. Hello tracker? January was perfect, February, even with it’s extra day had a 2 day gap. I chalk […]
I’m one month in to my 13th year of a daily photography practice/compulsion. While perfect attendance is not the goal (only achieved in 2015 and 2016) there usually looms a major year end task of rounding up the strays and ones missing from my yearly album. So as a goal for 2020 (I did not […]
Show me the exact line between habit and obsession. I might take a photo of it. Since 2008 I have attempted, though not 100% succeeded, at taking photographs every day, posting my favorite to flickr, as one of more than 1700 others in the Daily Photos group there https://www.flickr.com/groups/366photos/. The calendar change means setting up […]
To every new browser tab opened, is a window to the past, thanks to the Free to Use Browser Extension from the Library of Congress. What it means is that every new tab opened in Chrome comes a public domain photo from the Library of Congress. I don’t think I’ve ever seen the same one […]
As always, getting notice of a photo added to Flickr Explore is a wonderful surprise, as it is often unanticipated. It’s been a while (well not that long, since early August) that it happened. But I never expect a photo to land there, unlike many in the group discussions which sound like “Wahhhh Why Are […]
A classy and inspiring example how to be someone of high reputation yet very down to earth in social media… It might be 10 years ago that I was fortunate to take a photography workshop co-lead by famous professional photographer Bill Frakes. Much came of the experience- I got back into using my DSLR after […]
