After my previous show on Sunday, I was talking with Arnold talked about how sad it was not being able to hang out and photowalk as much as before. In contrast, the Los Angeles [Flickr] group have constant meet-ups. You can never be bored when you hang out with them!
Perhaps this is my mellow and slightly more focused approach.
In 2008, I posted about 2,300 photos to Flickr. So far this year, I’ve posted 437 photos to Flickr.
On the other hand, 2009 has mainly consisted of work, school, and music. I didn’t go to Las Vegas yet[1. I went to Las Vegas twice last summer.], nor did I visit my cousins in Hawaii.
Wait. I photographed a protest, went on a few protests of my own. C’mon!
Arnold would scold me for not undertaking another year of 365. But, I’d like to justify that I’m looking for quality over quantity. Some photos in that 2008 set were forced. In contrast, I’m very happy with the majority of photos posted from this year.
Plus, I’ve photographed more concerts, and I’m aiming to photograph two weddings in a couple months.
Whatever. I do what I want!
Ansel Adams is often quoted “12 significant photographs in any one year is a good crop.” Quality is what counts.

This photo may be one of my favorites of yours ever. It’s moody and beautiful – very nice. The blue in the shot glasses is very nice and the Guiness glass adds a nice touch – along with the fact that the shots are stacked and the semi-open cigarette pack in the lower left. I can’t get enough of this image!

Nicole: Wow, no kidding? (It didn’t really generate much interest with other Flickrites.) Thanks!
