100,000 Views on flickr…

March 12, 2007 | Filed Under Media, Photography 

I post photographs to flickr, they usually get between 6 and about 50 views, a couple of comments.

Sometimes I’ll post a decent-ish photo and I might get as many as 200 views a few faves and several comments.

A couple of weeks ago I posted this photo ‘Rosedale Light‘ to flickr, as of yesterday evening it has had over 100,000 views, almost 200 favorites and 120+ comments.

100000 Up

All because of a little self promotion on Digg.

here’s the picture…

…I just wish everyone had paid me a penny for each view…

..PS. If any publisher would like to print the image, I have the ultra-high res originals it’s suitable for printing A2 at 150dpi ;-) leave a comment below and we’ll talk numbers.

    I saw your photo in a StumbleUpon Forum, I knew that pic would have some sort of copyright. I nailed the poster and finally got a link to your Flickr. I hung around watching stuff, Then I came here and saw that you boosted rating by Digg. LOL. I was wondering how it got so big. But here is the goodnews, lets make it go even higher, try http://stumbleupon.com - this is not an add, just a suggestion. - Ruben The AnswerMan “Time wasted enjoying, isnt wasted at all”
