Category: Photography

I love photography. For me, it’s like painting, but better. And more accurate. And unlike painting, I can actually participate. I am not a big success or great master by any means. But I enjoy taking pictures. I also enjoy looking at other people work and sometimes sharing it. When I do, this is the category that I use.

Photo Friday: Burn

I believe I’ve already mentioned Photo Friday once or twice in this blog. It is an excellent website for all those who enjoy photographing things or looking at pictures. Every Friday a new challange is published, which is described in exactly one word. Anyone can participate in the challange. All you have to do is submit a link to your picture. One picture per person per challange only, please.

Usually I visit the site every Friday and sometimes I even participate myself. But this week I checked it only today. Well, I was surely missing on something. This week’s challange is ‘Burn‘. There are already more than 300 pictures posted. The variaty of subjects is amazing – everything from fire flames, candles, and burned cigarettes to burning sky sunsets, and chili souces via fireworks, firefighters, and stickers.

Unfortunately I don’t yet have any good image to submit, so I’ll have to participate with candles.

On Flickr

I really really like Flickr service, but I can’t find a good way to use it. Since I have my own server that hosts all my photographs, I don’t really need to upload anything anywhere else. My current photo albums don’t have all the functionality that I could get from Flickr – tags, search, feeds, comments – but I hope that I will migrate to some powerful album software soon enough.

Once in a while I still upload some pictures, go through galleries, and leave some comments here and there. That’s about all I do with it.

Does anyone of you uses Flickr? What’s your profile? Do you know of any way I could use Flickr together with this blog?

By the way, if you are interested, my Flickr gallery is here.

The weather wasn’t very good for sea swimming today. It was raining during the night and sun was still hiding behind clouds in the morning. So Maxim and I went for a little walk in the downtown instead of the beach. Better even, we walked a couple of streets that I’ve never walked before. Made a few shots.
