I found Flickr a bit overwhelming. So many photos, so much stuff, dare I say a lot of rubbish. I enjoyed plowing through for about 10 mins then I was over it. It did get me thinking about photos and why we love to take them. In the last few years I have given up my camera. When I go on holiday I am the only person really looking at the landscape or what ever the thing is that has drawn the tourist. Everyone else is looking for a good photo angle. Instead of photos I collect postcards and shells or leaves or bits and pieces to remember my adventure. Much more relaxing.
