Let’s hold of the self-congratulations… nope, it’s on. I am one month into the 18th year of (trying to do) taking/posting daily photos to flickr, yes 2025/365 is game on. Like who’s counting? C’est moi. The last two years I started strong, perfect for 5 or 6 months but fell off the boat around June, […]
