Deep Ecology
Good Morning !
From my window this morning, peace and quiet as the morning sunlight burned of the mist and fog in the forest behind my house.
I like to mediate on the the trees and the stillness in there being.

Lone Pine Tree in the Pinebarrens
I found this Pine tree watching me, so I decieded to photograph it, it had such character, very crooked branches, it must had been tested many times by mother nature I’m sure of it.

How to Improve Flickr Interestingness views
June 29th, 2009 · Flickr Posts
Ten things to do to improve :
1. Take good photos.
2. Have a good network of contacts who will view and comment and fave.
3. Post to at least one group, but don’t post to more than five for the first few days. During the first week, posting to lots of groups hurts; after the first week, it helps.
4. In first week, don’t post to more than a few award groups.
5. Have notes.
6. Have map and camera data. If you block camera data, or use film and don’t add the camera meta data, you’ll be penalized, A LOT. There’s thousands of film people or people who don’t want to give up their “secret settings” who can’t figure out why they can’t get into Explore… This is it!
7. Have a title and tags and text that people will search for, as that drives search engine traffic.
8. Don’t upload too much per day. Maybe 3 max? If you upload more than 3 per day it not only hurts interestingness, but it taxes your contact network. It also means any given photo is de facto seen by less people, since most contacts only look at last 1-4 photos.
9. Be active. If you give significantly less than you get, it terms of views, comments, and faves, all of your photos will be penalized significantly.
10. Challenge yourself. There’s a lot of competition when it comes to grabbing people’s limited attention. Take interesting photos!
