Tuesday Tutorial: Adding a Flickr Photo to Blogger

This is the basic way of adding a photo from Flickr. Kim Klassen, in addition to her wonderful texture classes, has a lot of videos with loads of tips for photographers, scrappers, bloggers etc. I also like that she has a calm voice and you don't feel frenetic when you listen and try to duplicate what she's doing.

You do have to go into the HTML tab, but even if you haven't tried using that one, it's just a copy and paste. Then you can go back to the non-HTML Compose tab. Easy-peasy. But as Kim says, you do have to re-center, or at least on my Mac you do also. Not sure why this glitch is still around in Blogger or if it is a glitch or if it is a Mac thingy. Sometimes things aren't worth worrying about especially if the fix is as simple as it is. Of course if you want your photo on the left, you don't need to do anything.

The 6th of the 6th

Paperiarre did this one and I like the randomnesss of the suggestion.

6th Flickr folder, 6th photograph...write about it.

everpresent security

This was on our trip to Italy in November 2008. We were taken by bus between Venice and Florence, with a stop in Padua. This was pretty much just after arrival in town, and I was surprised to see so much security there. We were marching along like a school trip, trying to stay as a group, but at the same time I was trying to see things that looked new or different to me and record them. It's a wonder I didn't fall down in the street. (ok, full disclosure - I think I did trip on occasion but I never hit the ground!) Bicycles, graffitti, security - yes, we have that too but it looked so different there in Italy.

The two smaller cities that we sampled - Padua and Orvietto - were really places that were so comfortable and so - ordinary. Ordinary in only the way that an Italian city can be ordinary! la Bella Figura reigns everywhere. I loved this little glimpse into day to day life.
