First Photo Featured on Flickr Explore
I have enjoyed photography from an early age, and been a
member of Flickr since 2007. As the site has improved I have begun putting more time
and effort into adding my photos. Until about a year ago I was happy if a photo
I took got over 100 views and a couple of favourites though.
Since then I´ve had two photos chosen from the #FlickrFriday contest, and
one for #TwitterTuesday. I thought these had had a lot of views when they
reached over a thousand, but this was nothing compared to being featured on
Flickr Explore.
The photo below which I named "Keeping an Eye on Things" has had over
10,250 views and 168 favourites in the two days since I uploaded it, after being
featured on Flickr Explore:
Tuesday morning I was up early, and decided to take some photos of my girlfriend,
Yariza Martín Key´s cats, as they
were playing in the field and the morning light was perfect. I selected
the five I liked the best, edited them a little (contrast, brightness) and
posted them on Flickr.
The next day I logged on and found out that a photo I took of Bolita sitting
in the sun on a wall, had been featured on Flickr Explore. My photo was, therefore, one of 500 that Flickr selects each day to highlight due to the
quality or interesting nature of the photo.
