mediocre's photostream  

Hello everyone!

Thanks for checking out this page.

I'll just take this opportunity to tell you how I like to use Flickr.

Things I like
All kinds of interesting stuff. Fresh ideas, cool techniques, humour, different angles and men who aren't afraid to cry. I am often amazed by the quality of some of the stuff on here. But I can equally enjoy photos that aren't technically perfect.
Stay wacky, people!

Things I do not like
I don't like 'arty' borders around photos; groups with stupid compulsory commenting rules; 'congratulations'-type image replies to photos; heavily filtered photos just to hide the fact that it's a shit photo to begin with, or for the sake of being arty; people that upload straight from the cam, leaving no information about what it is we're looking at or where it was taken (you know, the ones where there are 150 very similar photos with titles like img_000409786876.JPG ). Don't make us sort through your shit; do this yourself.

I also don't like people without a bit of a sense of humour. Photography is IMORTANT. Yeah, well, sometimes.

Hello group people!
I like being invited to interesting groups. But I won't join in any groups that have very strict rules on, say, the amount of other photos on which I have to comment on or have to add as a favourite (wtf?). I'd like to comment on a photo because I have something to say about it, not because some group rule tells me to. Thanks.

Please don't solely use the bit of code provided by your flickr group as a reply. They make you look immeasurably lazy and stupid. Cheers.

Hello favers with no user icon!
I will block the shit out of anyone who faves my photos without having any pics available themselves. Yes I will.

Copyright stuff
All photography is made and owned by me. You need to have a written permission if you want to publish any of my stuff in any commercial shape or form.

Some of my Flickr photos are on sale via Getty Images

If you'd like to use a photo in a non-commercial way, please ask. Chances are I'll happily approve. Cheers.
