flickr Top 40 Evolution

While finishing up my photographic bio, I was copying and adapting my introduction from my flickr Top 40 book.  So I decided to see how the top ten photos in my flickr Top 40 have changed in the past three years.

Only two of those are still in the top 10.  The rest have been supplanted by my newer photos.  I think this is partly because people are not likely to come across my much older photos.  And it’s also partly because my photography has improved since then so people are more attracted to my better work.  It’s a fun bit of a travel to the past looking at these photos.
