Safe at Last
4Oct2005
One of the great things about Flickr is the ability to be able to submit your favourite photos to the DeleteMe! group so they can be critiqued (read: savaged) by fellow flickr members. If they get enough votes, they go to the Safe. The comments are often harsh, but also constructive in many cases, and they can make you really look at your photos with a much more critical eye. I have submitted several pics to the group in the last 2 months with zero success, which can be a little disheartening. The good news is that I submitted one over the weekend and it got enough votes to make the Safe. This is somewhat of an honour given the fact that a) I am just a novice, and b) it’s a photo of my ugly mug. Still, it shows that you really have to submit something technically excellent (which this is not) or a bit different (which it is) to be in the running.
