My Friend Flickr
And a 2009 Costa Rica Retrospective Gallery
If you haven’t yet tried Flickr, I highly recommend you do so. It is a great place to share your images and link up with people who love creating what you create. In addition to hosting your photos and other graphical creations for friends, colleagues and the like to view, it also gives you a modest social networking experience. If you aren’t ready for the full Facebook experience, perhaps Flickr is a good choice for you.
2009 Costa Rica Gallery on Flickr
Slide Show or Rikk’s Flickr Page
There are many different groups of individuals haunting the virtual halls of Flickr. If you are a Lightroom user, there is a bunch of groups for you. If you like shooting (or even just viewing) HDR Images, there is a group or three for you. If your artwork is created in Corel PhotoPaint, there is a group for you too.
The possibilities are many. It can be a place to apprise clients of your latest work, an interactive discussion forum and a place to connect with potential associates, clients, and friends. Many of these groups issue periodic challenges getting you off your butt and into the field to create images. If nothing else, it inspires, stirs and motivates you to create. Flickr also dovetails in nicely with sites like Facebook and even this blog. (If you are viewing the WordPress version, scroll down the right side of the page to see what I mean)
I’ve posted two links to the Costa Rica 2009 gallery above. If you just want a quick overview, click on the Slide Show link. If you want to study images, go to my Flickr page and wander through the galleries I’ve posted. We are planning Costa Rica trips for 2010 right now. See if that 2009 Costa Rica gallery doesn’t just make you need to come along with me.
Check out Flickr today and let’s get excited about Costa Rica 2010!
