Explored on Flickr

[Geaux]

Woke up this morning to some awesome news. While it may not mean a lot to most, this is my first time being explored on Flickr, so I wanted to share the image. I'm pretty psyched about it, even though I realize it's mostly picked at random. Yesterday I had 322 total views, today... 4,807. I think it's great exposure for photographers.

Congrats! I've seen your work on Flickr when looking at Disney pics with my daughter. Great stuff! I didn't realize that was you having never clicked on your Flickr link here on TPF.

Congrats on getting explored! Its a great feeling when it happens the first time. I got a couple with over 20k views, it really does help to get noticed.

Great shot by the way.

I hadn't heard of Explore, but at my level, it wouldn't matter
Did you use tripod? Does Disney let a bunch of photo gear in or are they protective of their images?

This image was not taken with a tripod, just steady hand and 1/15th of a second shutter. On a 12mm fisheye, it's relatively easy to do. You can travel into disney with a photo bag/tripod/etc. They won't bother you.

Thank you so much, it's always nice to be recognized. Glad you and your daughter and enjoyed my "work"

Thanks. I'm no where near the status of your flickr page, I followed. Good stuff.

You're welcome and thank you for your kind compliment. I really appreciate it. I kind of ran out of photos to upload, winter is kicking my butt. Its beautiful today and so I might venture out to take a shot or two. Its just so cold here.
