The trouble with the Flickr Blog is that it tends not to want to offend anyone.

But some of the most interesting work on Flickr is deeply offensive.

I'm willing to bet, for example, that Flickr is the only place in the known universe that you can find a collection of utterly brilliant photos of dead squirrels:

-- from dogseat - (?)

I'm just alittle confused how one can add a idea for the blog w/o having a agenda. The last thread was closed due to self pimping according to heather, yet all the ideas there and here are just someones ideas of what they want to see in the blog which is really just why the last thread was closed in at least as We all want to see Our ideas put there weather it is for a cause or a group. 365 is just that imho as in as much as it is for a idea. On that note I would really love to see bikes get a day. Yeah in the days of mad gas prices it would be refreshing to see some photos of how the 2 wheel human powered folks show the world you can commute and due other things like even cut your grass on human power. I do. Peddle power rocks.

A buoy is a floating device, which can take on many forms, whether anchored or free drifting. These devices go by many names: Buoy, Bouy, Bouey, Bhoy, Bhouy, Float, Bouee, Flotteur, Boei, Boj, Boja, Boya, Boje, Bojen, Boia, Boa, Poi, Poiju, Bauja, Dufl, Pelampung, Plude, Flyteboye, Plovec & Samandira.

In the group Buoyant, www.flickr.com/groups/342193@N23/, we collect images of buoys and the waterscapes they exist in. A single buoy floating alone on a vast body of water is a metaphor for our isolation; and shows loneliness.

long-time Pittsburgh Flickr folk, elston, or Chuck, has been shooting a Jumpology set for some time now...he was inspired by Philippe Halsman to do so.



I think a feature on his ongoing set of Jumpology images is worthy of the Flickr Blog. He's even had the Mayor of Pittsburgh jump for him and his lens as well as so many others.

There even seems to be quite a few other Flickr folk who have picked up on Jumpology as subject matter for their cameras.

striatic says:

that balloon set is absolutely incredible .. flickr from space!

here's bit more detail about it that i've copied from the pentax forums ..

"Thanks for the comments. I chose the k10d for the photographic payload system on an experiment by Oklahoma State University to measure cosmic radiation with a new sensor.

The payloads are attached to a sounding balloon which climbs to over 100,000 ft. The balloon is tracked with GPS telemetry systems. When the balloon is launched, it is about 12 ft. in diameter. At peak altitude it is between 40-50 ft. in diameter before burst (or commanded cut-down).

The results are a testament to the quality and ruggedness of the Pentax gear. The camera was exposed to the harshness of the space environment (essentially a vacuum, and below -60F temperatures) and it never missed a beat. The only protection for the camera was a foam box which really doesn't protect it from the pressure changes or cold (there were no heaters on board) The box primarily protects the camera on impact since the payloads hit the ground at about 22mph.

As I mentioned, the camera took well over 300 pictures. In fact, I went back and counted and the actual number is 563. All in PEF RAW format. The only ones that are unuseable are the ones after the camera landed. Since the camera and lens were so cold from the extreme altitude, condensation started forming on the lens shortly before landing. (It was a very humid day here since it rained the day before) The camera and lens were soaked with condensation, but kept happily fireing away with no problems other than you couldnt see through the water on the lens. By that point, there was nothing left to see.

Now as to exposure; the camera performed better than my wildest dreams. We put it in Tv mode at 1/3000 to freeze motion (since the ride is quite violent at times). Auto ISO, and multi-segment metering. Out of those hundreds of photos, there are maybe 5 or 6 that were overexposed when the camera was facing the sun. The biggest "problem" is that we have too many good photos!"

Kristal    says:

Trapac has some awesome shots posted. Double exposure [LOVE] with Vivitar Ultra Wide and Slim [LOVE] using Redscaled Konica Minolta VX Super 200.

"Redscaling.
Basically it involves taking a roll of ordinary 'bog standard' print film, reversing it and respooling it into another film cannister (all done in a dark bag) so that the light is exposed on 'the wrong side of the film' when you take a shot. You then lose two 'stops' on the optimal exposure conditions from the original. It gets developed in exactly the same way as print film, but be prepared for the technician to be a little startled (at best) or a little irritated (at worst) when they realise that something very odd has happened to the film. :) "

A few months ago I stumbled across the "Curious Expeditions" website and later I was delighted to find they were also on Flickr.

Curious Expeditions consists of a couple who travel around all over the place, but mostly central and eastern Europe, visiting weird little private museums, incredible old libraries, and anywhere where curiosities are on display. They photograph what they see and write about it. They just do this for the love of it, not for profit, and their website and photographs are a wonderland of strangenesses, eccentricities, history, and visual interest.

Why not feature Aaron and Rosie on the blog? Their love story is amazing and can be followed from start to present in their Flickr streams. Rosie lives in England and Aaron in the US and Flickr brought them together. After starting their relationship on Flickr they started making collaboration shots for their 365s on Sundays - making it appear as if they were together even though they couldn't be. They are both amazingly talented and creative and these collaboration shots are often out of this world!
While writing this Rosie is visiting Aaron in the States for the first time, which is only their second time together (Aaron went to Rosie in August), and I know that a whole bunch of Flickrites are following their every move their through their pictures and their joint blog. Don't miss out on smiling, laughing and crying with these two; they really prove everything is possible!

i'm hoping this doesn't get seen as "pimping my stuff", since i'm not really pimping anything of my own, personally, but the story does have a lot to do with me.

recently, i got engaged. i posed a question to my local flickrites group, cream city milwaukee, wondering who would be game for doing our engagement photos for us, if anyone?

after a couple of volunteers at first, some discussion, and a bright idea, the group themselves came to the conclusion to have me and my fiance be the subject for the next month's photowalk.

so, for about 2 hours one sunny saturday afternoon in milwaukee, my fiance and i got to be photographed by 11 different photographers (some amatuers and some actual pros), and currently have over 300 images to choose from for our official "engagement photos." all of this, completely free to us.

we even created a new group pool (http://www.flickr.com/groups/phlewtephotowalk/) just to store the massive amounts of photos from that day. it was an experience i'll never forget, and it never would have happened if it wasn't for flickr.
