OMG Flickr has just raised the photo quota!

Remember Flickr ? It was an image online website that has been around since 2004. It had some nice features, a RSS feed, storage  of full resolution photos, a huge user base and retention of metadata (unlike Facebook). Over the years the interface has changed little and has grown rather dated. Google recently updated their Google+ photo presentation as part of Google I/O 2013  and it was beautiful. I really saw no reason to bother with Flickr anymore for photos. But competition is a wonderful thing. Imagine my surprise to the see the new Flickr which allows a full TERABYTE of storage and a beautiful display of photos. Click on the graveyard to see the original. I'm very pleased.

Sunday Daily Photo Theme - Door Sunday

I've always considered doors and window as a good subject for photos. I think it is the idea of a transition from one world into another. Looking back in the archives I was amazed at how many door and window shots I have taken. Here a scanned transparency taken decades ago. My pick for Door Sunday .
