Photos, - to store, to share, to dream

Photo sharing communities are a great way to show off your pics, and to delve into other people's lives. I quite often use them to catch up with people (particularly with small children) and see what they have been doing without actually having to physically get together. I also find that I can peruse other's social lives without their direct knowledge, as some people post their every waking minute.

I like to dream of other places in both the past and future (and sometimes current time). Hence my attached image that is firmly planted in my mind this year.

This is such a great photo, it seems too unreal. Perhaps it has been photoshop'd, but the colours, the shadow and the clouds are brilliant.
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be displaying in the post, even though it is in the HTML. I will come back to it and fix up later.

I have worked out that the user didn't allow his photo to be shared or downloaded from flicker, so I have just done a screen dump and added it to this post. Now you can see what my dreams are made of!
You can see the rest of his photos and the original by going to flickr from here.

Great photo.It did show up in your blog as well as your link. I've noticed Machu Picchu is a popular topic on library blogs, perhaps there is something in that..not really sure what that is yet.
