I use my flickr for everything and anyone browsing there can decide for themselves what's documentary and what's art. It helps that I don't generally make "sets" so I know my old caps will tend to disappear into the backlog of my photostream and not end up representing me on the front page forever, especially as flickr seems determined to undermine any functional search via an individual's tags &c. And, of course, I have the excuse of a terrible point n shoot camera. My caps of a recent flan in Brum are especially awful as you will eventually see, heh, because I ended up shooting into the light too much because that's what it was like when I was there (and luckily I don't have sophisticated processing software to tempt me into wasting time trying to rescue the images). I miss the quality of my old 35mm SLR but if I still had it I'd never process and post photos online.

My journal is my only substantial online presence because I can't compartmentalise my mind/life into the categories site builders use to commercialise their users' content. ::shrugs::

Ah, I actually meant setting photos on Flickr to not be public, but still posting the image from them. :) I tried that for a few Clo-May posts.

In the end, for my last challenge write up, I did decide to post my photos on Flickr, set to public, even if some were blurry. :) if they end up as the wallpaper on my mum's computer, so be it!
