I noticed from the context of the above photo that you had featured one of my earlier pictures. Took some digging, but I was able to figure out which one it was by using the Houstonist's website's own search box. The previous photo of mine was:

I'm wondering which ones count... I've had some used in stories and a couple selected as shots of the day. Today I also noticed some in the contribute area... oh well, I'll post them all!

Featured photos:

Jones and Green Creek just before the storm hit

10/10/06
Newest baby Masai Giraffe born at the Houston Zoo

In today's story "Garden Guy getting reamed about anti-gay policy":

I like their crop job... thanks folks, I need the help!

OK, so I've been a little lax about checking the Houstonist every day... I won't make that mistake again. ;-) LOL Actually, it is a very interesting site. I like it a lot.

I'm not an admin, but I would say for sure the shots selected as Photo of the Day. Many people also put photos up that are used with the news stories.

The photos that are in contribute you put there by adding a houstonist tag to your photo which they of course encourage.

I'm a total Houstonist groupie and always glad when new people find the site. Tell your friends!
