There's no accounting for taste





Periodically I look through holiday photos and am astounded at what other people find attractive. I love these stairs, and according to Picasa, this photo of mine received a few visits, whereas a picture of my flipflops received 227 hits, a bee buzzing around Provence this summer got 483 hits, and what I consider a ho-hum, yes another photo of the Eiffel tower which I didn't bother straightening got a whopping 922 hits from strangers who happened on my Picasa page.

  1. I have a similar thing going on on flickr - my most viewed picture is a picture of Iker Casillas lifting the European Championship trophy - not a great photo by any means. Proof that the tags make it popular! Otherwise it is the pictures from my "Stickmen in Peril" contributions that receive the most visits.

  2. I have to admit, I was drawn to the flip flops too. Creative, somehow. And my second choice was the bee. But then I'm a macro nut!
