Zooomr, experience the world through photos.
I love photography. More than anything else this is where I find my heart, mind, thoughts and time these days. When I was 15 years old my parents bought me my first 35mm camera. It was a Sigma and it rocked my world. Since then I've had several cameras but the love has only intensified for me.
A little over a year ago I stumbled on the most amazing thing to ever happen to my photography. Flickr. Flickr changed digital photography for me in ways I never dreamed possible. Flickr added a whole new dimension to what photography would become for me. Flickr too rocked my world. More precisely though, Flickr did two important things for me.
First, as a photographer Flickr created an instant community of other photographers. I still remember my first Flickr meetup. cate. beautiful cate had been commenting on my photographs and invited me to a get together at the Big Foot Lodge. I was thrilled. And that night was very special for me. That night I met Sam Bloomberg Rissman and Aqui-Ali and John Curley and Sugar Booger and a whole bunch of some of the best damn people you will ever meet *and* some of the best damn people who never tire of talking with you about ISOs and apertures and RAW and JPG and prime lenses vs. zoom lenses and flickr and so on. Since that flickr meet up a little over a year ago I've become better friends with many of those people and I've made quite a few more along the way. I truly value these friendships.

anyone know how to delete pics from your favorites?

Miss Priority:
Go to your favorites and click on the photo you want to remove. This will take you to the regular photo page for that picture. Above the photo you'll see a pink star that says "A Fave." Click that and it will remove it from your favorites. BTW... if you re-fave a photo, it will add it to the top of you list.
