Are you on Flickr? Do you really use it?
I'm curious to know because I just recently started using it more frequently to upload, post, and view images. I've had an account for years but barely posted anything there since I didn't really see a need for it. However, after starting my tasra365 photography challenge to improve my images 300% in a year, I had a change of heart.
The primary reason for the change was a request by one of the participants in the challenge. They wanted a way to participate, but didn't have a blog. Using Flickr and creating a group specific for those taking this challenge allows those with or without a blog to participate equally. AND get feedback and comments.
Feedback and comments are one of the greatest aspects of Flickr in my opinion. It allows you to see what people respond to in your images. It provides instant feedback and gratification for your hard work. And it allows you to challenge and motivate yourself to improve when you are posting in a public forum for others to see.
Would love to hear your thoughts on Flickr and photo sharing. Even more, would be honored to have you join us in our group! Above is just one of the recent images I uploaded to the site.
