I've been on flickr since June of 2005, so that's just over 10 years now. I hit 1 million views back in 2013 and I feel about the same with 2 million views. Still 10 years with flickr deserves something so here are my top photos in Explore by year going back to 2005. Explore is flickr's top 500 photos for the day the photo was uploaded.
Seattle Great Wheel : 2015 (so far) #205 in Explore. Only shot on the list taken with my new Pentax K3ii | |
Rob's Return: 2014, #41 I've previously blogged about Rob's Return, no surprise that it's on this list. | |
Giant Head, the Bow: 2013 #101 One of Calgary's most iconic public art installations in front of one of our most iconic building. With a ranking of 101 this tied with Jackrabbit Snow for 2014's highest rank in Explore. I went with Giant Head as it as more than double the views. | |
London Eye Pod, 2012 #14 Taken from the top of the London Eye, on our trip to Europe to celebrate our 20th Anniversary. Flickr currently ranks this as my most interesting picture. | |
Green Points: 2011 #350 Taken on our trip up BC's Sunset Coast. The only photo on this list taken with a Lensbaby. The second shot from BC to make this list. | |
Calgary Tower in Fog: 2010 #51 We don't get much fog in Calgary but when we do it can lead to some cool photos. | |
Action in Lane 20: 2009 #50 The Calgary Flickr Meet Up Group rented a bowling alley and I got this cool shot of the bright ball and pins falling. The only indoor shot to make the list. | |
Sky Canola: 2008 #350 Taken with my point and shoot while biking. I didn't even stop to take this shot, just pointed the camera at the field and kept going. Flickr ranks this as my second most interesting shot of all time. | |
First Macro Experiment: 2007 #82 Flowers in the Quebec City Farmer's market. I had just gotten my first SRL (Pentax's K10d). I had gone to the market the day before, but went back with a macro lens to see if I could get better results - looks like I did :) | |
Queen of the Ducks: 2006 #107 Another Flickr Meetup group shot. Fellow flickerite Lisataime brought seed to attract the ducks and I got in on the actions. | |
Street Humor: 2005 #97 On 17th ave. I had to pay him to get this shot. Again taken while out the the Calgary Flickr Meet Up Group. I do miss that group. They had a huge impact on my photography. |
