I am currently a bit obsessed with Flickr.  I am not sure why it has taken me this long to really discover this site.  It may have a bit to do with a lack of time of late, but I mean, its a visual feast!  

While searching around in The Commons, I discovered a photostream of Autochrome images, an early color technique, which to me, yields a most romantic view.  

Here are a few examples:

I am fairly new to flickr, I mean, I have had a flickr account but have honestly not spent much time on it, I have merely used it as a place to store pics of my store.  But I have dedicated a file in my bookmarks of all flickr users I have stumbled upon and admire; and after doing the MOSAIC OF ME project last week, I am finally finding a little time to meddle around in there.  

Today I have discovered a section of Flickr named, The Commons, which houses photos from different Institutions from around the world, for instance the Library of Congress and Smithsonian, amongst others. I decided to type a word into The Common’s search engine and put together a mosaic of images that came up from that.

My word was: SMILE

I must note the irony of all those smiles on the japanese-american women put in “camps” during WWII…and the fact that quite frankly, this search did NOT yield many photos  although I think these four are gems.
