Daily Flickr Pickr – Day 348

Every day we share a single photo from our Flickr Pool shot by one of our faithful and talented readers (that’s you!). Well folks, this is it. When Bob asked for volunteers to edit the Flickr Pool for a few months I jumped at the chance.

Well folks, this is it. When Bob asked for volunteers to edit the Flickr Pool for a few months I jumped at the chance. It gave me the chance to familiarize myself with some local photographers, to get a little better at using "The flickr" and business was slow so I had time to lazily browse through the photos and choose my favourites.

this represents 103 days of my life. never missed a day.

Well times change, I'm back to busy season and my long, lazy browsing sessions turned into a mad scramble to choose something and get it online as soon as possible. Even so, I'll miss my daily forays into to pool to see what new gems have been posted overnight. It's been really inspiring to see the local talent and it's always instructive for photographers to spend time looking at photography critically every day.

So thanks for tuning in, tomorrow Gary Hubbs will be taking over and I look forward to seeing someone else bring their taste to the daily flickr pick. As for me, I look forward to continuing to contribute to VancouverIsAwesome.com which I still believe is he best website in Vancouver, and I would encourage anyone to get involved with it and by extension, with your community.

So now for my last pick. What will it be? Well I'm picking my own shot for once! To me, this represents something that very few cities in the world offer, incredible natural beauty smashed right up next to an amazing urban environment. Plus, it's literally taken from my desk at home. This is my view.

See you down the road folks. Follow me on twitter if you like, or facebook, or check in with my blog, which should now come back to life after being neglected. Thanks for the job Bob, and thanks to everyone who commented, sent notes or clicked "like" on my picks.
