This image isn’t really a “Flickr” image. It doesn’t read well to me at small size with it’s compressed value. In the print, the vibrant red plays off well against the black and the small illuminated area at the center.

If the image isn’t suitable for Flickr, why post it? My Flickr stream is a diary for me. I can look over my output over time to learn quickly about where I’m moving as a photographer. And I’m very grateful for the audience that a public diary brings. The feedback from individuals and from the view flow is useful in context.

While I’ve been comparison shopping and comparing the iTunes music store with Amazon’s MP3 downloads, I discovered that the old ECM catalog is mostly available on Amazon now. These have been some of my favorite LPs and at 7 or 8 dollars, makes downloading attractive.

Glad I skipped the CD era on these recordings.
