This is the view I woke up to every morning of my honeymoon. My husband and I had the choice of spending money on a honeymoon or going simple and using the money towards school.....we chose to go simple. However, I don't really think it matters where you go on a honeymoon as long as your there together. :)
Anyway, in the craziness and chaos of the wedding day I totally forgot to pack my camera. We have absolutely no pictures to remember our fabulous week on this beautiful river in Michigan. Since our assignment was to explore flickr I decided to see how many pictures I could find of the Au Sable River (most people haven't a clue of where it even is). So, I'm busy searching and I stumble on this wonderful photograph. It amazes me at how well it captures the beauty and peacefulness we experienced every day of our trip.
Until this class I had never even heard of flickr. What a great way for people to share pictures with others; whether it be sharing with friends or someone with a common interest. I'm eager to explore and learn more about this site.

I have done the exact same thing - forgotten my camera. Now with the numerous picture sharing sites, we can relive our memories through others pictures.
ReplyDeleteThe big upside to using Flickr in the classroom, is that you can bring pictures of the topics you are teaching into your instruction - all without hunting forever using a Google Image Search.
Flickr, and its tag based system, helps one locate items of interest much quicker than a wide open image search on the web.
