Using the Flickr BlogThis feature is OK for ONLY non-commercial sites, as long as you leave the credit name info and a direct link back to the photo in my stream. Please let me know before using my photos, thanks!
Note: I prefer a minimum of a micropayment for all commercial and application-related requests. Keep photographers in business with fair monetary acknowledgement of their efforts. DSLR equipment isn't free, storage and software isn't free, nor do you work for free, right?
My Digital SLR Camera Equipment
Canon EOS 5D Mark II, Canon EOS Rebel XTi, Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Lens, Canon EF 135mm f/2L USM Lens, Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM Wide Angle Lens, Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM Lens
If you feel that all photos on flickr and other sites should be free for the taking, consider reading John Adkins' excellent post, Sharing and Stealing: A Photographer's Nightmare.
iPhoneography (and the Art of the Square)
I'm a big fan of iphoneography, and am always snapping photos on the go, especially now I have a LONG commute -- here is some of what I use.
iPhone Photography Apps
Apple iPhone 4, Instagram, ShakeItPhoto, Hipstamatic, TiltShift Generator, Pocketbooth (and more)

noprome says:
"Photography has gone from a hobby to a passion, and to a large extent, I credit Paula's work as the causation for this. When I grow up, I'd really like to be as proficient as she... well that's to say I'll never grow up...o.k., when I'm older...damn it, too late! Thanx Paula!"

"It's up to Paula that I was inspired to post my own collection of vintage ephemera! She has a wonderful archive of mid-century pop culture images, and some great sketches to boot!"

Lisanne! says:
"I've been saying for the years that the Internet would become the repository for imporant works which would never become generally available through earlier media. A great work, one of true depth and scope, could not be easily published through traditional modes. Paula Wirth exemplifies the possibilities that exist within this still new form. What she has accomplished is indeed a great work; she has complied an excellent body of material about our society, its roots and its various passageways and alleys. When I find such creative expression I am quite awed and grateful."

"I honestly believed I loved and knew a lot about kitch and ephemora. Then I saw Paula's photostream. That shut me up quick.
In all seriousness don't read this tripe I am writing, just go and enjoy all the images she has ammassed."8th March, 2006

"Paula is a great illustrator and she's even better at capturing everyday life moments in her sketches. But the greatest thing about her presence on Flickr is her ability to capture and present us with countless graphic design and advertising ephemera, to remind us whence we came, to boldly go where no designer has gone before."

"Paula has a great eye for books that add a sharp note of folly to the nostalgia and she's an illustrator too. Always something to look forward to in my contacts list. What a gem."
