My “most interesting” shots on Flickr come from a time when Flickr was smaller, quieter, and drew less attention. The people who frequented it were real photography enthusiasts, hobbyists, and even professionals. Agencies contacted me to use my work in their advertisements and on their book covers. I (well, my feet anyway) was featured on the front page.
I participated in groups on technique, themes, and even charity. We raised thousands of dollars for Hurricane Katrina relief.

Camera tossing became a worldwide phenomenon. I made good friends. I found and fell in love with my husband.

My photographs were different back then. Brighter. More colourful. And nearly all with a point & shoot camera.
Now, I don’t participate in groups. I rarely comment. I use Flickr mostly to share my British life with my American family. And participate in the Bollington photography scene, of course.
