All in all, just another brick in the wall
Another find on my "Charlotte, NC" Flickr search. Just thought it was pretty wicked. That is all.
Fun with Flickr, or This Is My City
More of the 23 Things! Next up, Flickr. Now, I'm familiar with Flickr - I know people who post on it, and I've browsed through friends' albums on there before. I had not, however, set up my own account (at least, I don't remember having done it...wouldn't be the first time I've signed up at a website and forgotten about my account) and linked it to a blog.
Part of the Flickr "assignment" was to poke around and find an interesting image and blog about it. In a less-than-creative search, I typed in "Charlotte, NC" and came up with the image to the right. It's the Charlotte skyline, with the Bank of America building and Hearst Tower featured most prominently, and Bobcats Arena to the left. I think the colors and the shadows make this photo sharp and eye-catching. Obviously, the photo has been manipulated, and the photographer says he used some filters and Photoshop to acheive his desired effects on his Flickr page.
But yep, that's my city, that's my home. And I work up there, too...the library building is just across the street from Hearst Tower. Whatever you do, though, please don't get jealous that you don't have cool photos of your city, too. Or you could just search Flickr, because maybe you do.
