Flickr stockphoto hits

Tuesday, November 21st, 2006

Interesting. In the past month or so I have had 4 hits from professional publishers wanting to use photos of mine they found on Flickr. I am not a professional photographer, don’t advertise my photos and have had fewer hits in the past year than the past month. I wonder if Flickr is becoming a viable stockphoto choice for publishers?

Glickr your Flickr

Gif animations at Gickr.com

Glickr is hilarious. Give it a tag, your Flickr screen name and then select the photos. It will produce an animated GIF. Lots of fun with tags like the above which is my One A Day set.

Spraoi

Tuesday, August 8th, 2006

Waterford’s Spraoi festival ended with a bang on Sunday night. A brilliant parade of macabre monsters and a pretty decent set of fireworks. I got a video of the fireworks (I would put it on YouTube but the “clever” system doesn’t like the portrait format of my video and auto-rotates it to landscape format. Which is daft.)

We then headed for the pubs and drank into the early hours.

Web2Ireland photos

Monday, May 22nd, 2006

Mary has some good official photos of the Web2Ireland event. I spotted her working the crowd with a Kodak DCS Pro 14n on a Manfrotto tripod.

And here I am wearing my Code Project t-shirt. I need to get a FeedHenry one for these events.
